INVESTIGATION OF THE EFFECT OF MENSTRUATION PERIOD ON SPORTIVE PERFORMANCE OF WOMEN’S FUTSAL PLAYERS

This paper was to investigate the effect of menstruation cycles on sportive performance in women’s futsal players. A total of 8 healthy, active and volunteer women players who had a regular menstruation period and didn’t use any regulatory medical supplement (oral contraceptive) were recruited for this study. To analyse data, means of age, height, body weight and BMI values of the players, standard deviation, minimum and maximum values were calculated. The Friedman Two Way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) test from nonparametric tests was employed to determine if there is a difference among menstrual phases. Findings clearly indicate that flexibility, vertical jump and anaerobic power values showed significant decrease (P&lt;0,01), while other performance variables didn’t show statistical significant differences (P&gt;0.05) among menstrual cycles. In a nutshell, it can be concluded that menstrual cycles of women’s futsal players don’t affect the flexibility, power, speed, anaerobic and aerobic power performances.  Article visualizations

Investigating the effect of premenstrual syndrome in high school students doing regular sports

Present study was aimed to investigate the effect of regular exercise on premenstrual syndrome (PMS) in high school students.  A total of 252 high school students who involved in regularly (n = 117) and sedentary students (n = 135) participated in the study. The personal information form was used to determine the age group and sports status of the participants and the Premenstrual Syndrome Scale (PMSS) developed by Gençdoğan (2006) consisting of 44 questions was used to determine the premenstrual syndrome levels. Mann Whitney U and Kruskal Wallis H tests were used in SPSS 22.0 program for statistical analysis of data obtained. At the end of the study, the level of PMS was found to be significantly higher in the sedentary students compared to the students who participated regularly in sports (p &lt;0.05). When handled according to age group variable, it was found out the students who regularly in sports did not show any statistically significant difference in depressive affection, anxiety, fatigue, nervousness, depressive thoughts, pain, bloating, appetite changes and PMS total syndrome levels (p&gt; 0.05). In the sedentary students, depressive affection and anxiety subscales were found to be statistically significant in favor of students in the age group of 17 years (p &lt;0.05).As a result, it is possible to say that the participation in sports in high school students  has a positive contribution to PMS, while the age factor holds a significant effect on the symptoms on PMS

20-45 yaş arası kadınlarda menstrüal siklusun her üç döneminde (menstrüal dönem öncesi, menstrüal dönem ve menstrüal dönem sonrası) beslenme alışkanlıklarının belirlenmesi

Menstrüal siklus birçok faktörden etkilenebilen karmaşık bir döngüdür. Beslenme ve beslenme alışkanlıklarının menstrüal siklus üzerine etkileri hem yetersiz beslenme hem de aşırı beslenme üzerinden görülebilmektedir. Bu çalışma, 20-45 yaş arası kadınlarda premenstrual dönem, menstrüal dönem ve menstrüal dönem sonrasındaki beslenme durumları, besin tercihleri, yeme tutumları ve farklılıkların saptanması, elde edilen verilere göre alınan enerji ve besin ögelerinin değerlendirilmesi amacı ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırma, Aralık 2015 ile Ocak 2016 tarihleri arasında Ankara Atatürk Eğitim ve Araştırma Hastanesi, Kadın Hastalıkları ve Doğum Polikliniğine başvuran 20-45 yaş arası 100 kadın üzerinde yürütülmüştür. Bireyların kişisel bilgileri, menstrüasyonun besin tüketimi ve enerji dengesi üzerine etkisinin saptanması, menstrüal siklusun her üç döneminde (menstrüal dönem öncesi, menstrüal dönem ve menstrüal dönem sonrası) oluşan fiziksel ve besin tüketimindeki değişikliklere ilişkin bilgileri saptamaya yönelik anket formu uygulanmıştır. Çalışmada bireyların yaş ortalaması 32.57 ±7.62 yıl olarak saptanmıştır. Bireylerin ilk menstruasyon yaş ortalaması 12.99 ± 1.23 yıl olarak saptanmıştır. Çalışmaya katılan bireylerin BKİ (kg/m²) oratlaması 24.68 ± 4.25’dir. Çalışmaya katılan bireylerden % 62.0’ ının premenstrual dönemde iştahının arttığı, % 8.0’ının bu dönemde iştahının azaldığı ve % 30.0’ının ise bu dönemde iştahlarında herhangi bir değişme olmadığı belirlenmiştir. Çalışmaya katılan 100 kadının 90’ı premenstruasyon dönemde tatlı ihtiyacı hissederken, 21’i tuzlu, 16’sı acı ve 14’ü ekşi besin tüketme ihtiyacı hissetmektedir.Sonuç olarak, menstrüal siklus beslenme durumu ve yeme tutumu ile ilişkilidir ve kadınların yaş gruplarına ve fizyolojik ihtiyaçlarına göre uygun bir beslenme ve yaşam tarzı geliştirilmesi önemlidir. Bu durumun detaylı incelenmesi için daha büyük çaplı çalışmalara ihtiyaç vardır. The Menstrual cycle is a complex cycle that can be affected by many factors. Nutrition and eating habits affect the menstrual cycle through malnutrition and overfeeding. The purpose of this study is to determine the anthropometric measurement of the pre-menstrual period, menstrual period and post-menstrual period on women aged between 20 - 45 and to assess the differences of nutritional status, food preferences and eating attitudes. Using the detailed analysis results, the aim is to make comparisons between energy obtained with the evaluation of input of nutrients. Research was conducted on 100 women aged between 20-45 admitted to Ankara Ataturk Training and Research Hospital the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department between December 2015 and January 2016. A questionnaire consisted of personal information and data gathering from each of the participants to determine the affect on their food intake, energy balance and physical dietary changes seen during the three phases of the menstrual cycle. The average age of participants in the study was found to be 32.5±7.62 years. Average age of first menstruation for participating was found 12.99± 1.23 years old. Moreover, average of BMI (kg/m2) of participating was found 24.68± 4.25. 62 % of the individuals participating in the study experienced an increase in appetite during the pre-menstrual period and 30% of the individuals experienced no change in appetite whilst 8% experienced a decrease in appetite. 90 of the 100 women who participated in the study felt the need to consume dessert before menstruation, 21 women felt the need to consume salty foods, 16 felt the need for bitter food and 14 felt the need to consume sour flavoured food.As a result of the research, we have found that the menstrual cycle is associated with eating behaviours and nutritional value/status and so it is therefore important to develop a healthy diet and lifestyle, in accordance with women’s age groups and physiological needs. However there is a need for a further study to examine this in greater detail

Kinesiophobia and fear avoidance behaviors in collegiate female athletes during menstruation

Background and Study Aim. The menstrual cycle can be a factor affecting performance in female athletes if accompanied by pain. In this study, authors aimed to examine how menstruation pain affects kinesiophobia and fear avoidance behavior in female athletes. Material and Methods. Study included a total of 50 female athletes aged 18-35 years. The athletes were divided into 3 groups as Group 1 (With Pain), Group 2 (No Pain) and Group 3 (Intermittent Pain) according to their pain experience during menstruation. The groups were compared in terms of kinesiophobia and fear avoidance behaviors. Kinesiophobia was evaluated with the Tampa Kinesiophobia Scale (TKS), fear avoidance behaviors were evaluated by using Fear Avoidance Beliefs Questionnaire (FABQ). Results. There was a significant difference between the 3 groups in terms of both TKS and FABQ scores (p0.05), there was a significant difference between Group 1 and Group 2 and between Group 2 and Group 3 (p<0.05). There was a significant difference in favor of Group 1 in all pairwise comparisons in terms of FABQ scores (p<0.05). Pain intensity was associated with TKS and FABQ. Conclusions. A significant majority of female athletes experienced pain during menstruation, exhibited kinesiophobia and fear avoidance behavior due to pain. Since kinesiophobia and fear avoidance behavior can be a limiting factor for the athlete's optimum performance, female athletes should be supported in order for them to develop coping methods
