Title: Is there any connection between the menstrual cycle and the lunar cycle?

Icaro Salerno  asked the Naked Scientists:
   
Hi my name is Ícaro, I'm from São Paulo, Brazil.

There you go:

Is there any connection between the menstrual cycle and the moon cycle? I ask that because it seems likely that as both have similar duration, maybe there's a link going on. Perhaps something related to floods and harvests...

Hope to find an answer, thanks!

What do you think?
