Comparison between Athletic and Non-athletic Rlayer on Ovarian and Growth Related Hormone During Menstrual Cycle

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of an exercise on circulating concentration of ovarian (estrogen, progesterone), cortisol and growth related hormone (growth hormone, testosterone). Thirty young female participated on this investigation. The control group consisted of 15 sedentary high school women with athletic groups were member of th basketball team. The subject rested for 30 min before blood sampling. Venous blood sample was obtained during luteal phase(7day before mense), early follicular phase(3day during mense), and late follicular phase(7day after mense). The effects of exercise on the concentration of hormone were compared separately for subjects tested during menstrual cycle. A significant decrease occurred in estrogen, progesterone, testosterone concentration when blood sampling was taken during menses in athletic group, but no change were observed in the concentration of cortisol and growth hormone in each group. Compared with control and athletic group, athletic groups had significantly higher cortisol values than did the control groups at rest. But no significant differences were observed other hormone(estrogen, progesterone, testosterone). In conclusion, basket player who experience chronic exercise showed difference change of circulating levels of hormone during menstrual cycle rather than normal control female. Further study needed to elucidate the mechanism of such hormone with exercise related to exercise intensity, during exercise.
