Effects of Exercise on ?-Endorphin and Follicle Stimulating Hormone Levels among Female Army Officer

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı yüksek yoğunlukta egzersizin kadın subaylarda ?-endorfin ve FSH düzeylerinde değişikliğe yol açıp açmayacağını belirlemektir. Materyal ve Metod: Kırk altı sağlıklı kadın subay bu çalışma için gönüllü oldu. Bunların hepsi çalışmaya katıldıklarına ilişkin yazılı onay verdi. Denekler 2 grupta kategorize edildi; yüksek yoğunluklu egzersiz grubu (HE, 23 denek) ve egzersiz olmayan grup (NE, 23 denek). Çalışmaya katılım kriterleri; amenore, reprodüktif hormonların tüketilmemesi, yaş aralığı 21-40 ve diyet programının dahil olmaması, bu belirtilen ile uyumsuz bulgular ise çalışma dışı bırakılma kriterleri olarak tanımlandı. Yüksek yoğunluklu egzersiz 7 ay boyunca haftada 6 gün ve günde 3 defa 1953-3200 metre koşu şeklinde uygulandı. Serum ?-endorfin düzeyleri immünoenzimatik eliza yöntemiyle ölçüldü. Serum FSH seviyeleri kemiluminosens metoduyla ölçüldü. Bulgular: Yaş, boy uzunluğu, vücut ağırlığı ve menarş başlangıcı bakımından gruplar arasında önemli bir farklılık (p>0.05) gözlemlenmedi. Kontrol grubuyla kıyaslandığında yüksek yoğunluklu egzersiz yapan grupta ?-endorfin düzeyleri önemli ölçüde artmıştır (p

Kadın Ordu Çalışanlarında Egzersizin ?-Endorfin ve Folikül Uyarıcı Hormon Düzeylerine Etkileri

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate whether chronically high-intensity exercise can change ?-endorphin and FSH level among female army officer. Material and Methods: Fourty six healthy female army officer volunteered for the study. All of them gave written consent regarding their participation. The subjects were categorized in two groups: high-intensity exercise (HE, 23 subjects) and non exercise (NE, 23 subjects). The inclusion criteria were amenorrhea, no consumption of reproductive hormonal, age between 21-40 years, and not involved in diet programme, while the exclusion criteria were any factors that could interfere with normality. High intensity-exercise was performed chronically by running for between 1953-3200 meter, three times per day, 6 days per weeks, for 7 months. Serum ?-endorphin was measured immunoenzymatically using an ELISA method. FSH serum was measured by chemiluminescence method. Results: Age, body weight, height and onset of menarchee were not significantly different between group (P > 0.05). High-intensity exercise significantly increase the ?-endorphin level compared to the control (P < 0.01). The level of FSH significantly decrease in the HE group than that the NE group (P < 0.01). Conclusion: In conclusion, the high-intensitiy exercise on among female army officer can increase ?-endorphin and decrease follicle stimulating hormone level.
