text: The dramatic changes that a women’s physiology undergoes 
  during life have been suggested to concur with the atypical 
  interoception often reported (e.g. heightened interoceptive atten- 
  tion but poor interoceptive accuracy), which might contribute 
  to their greater vulnerability to mental illness (Murphy et al. 
  2019). Although this is still a speculative hypothesis that needs 
  to be tested empirically, the effect of these transition periods on 
  women’s well-being is currently overlooked and deserves more 
  attention.
