OBJECTIVE
Synchronised swimming is a sport that shares certain characteristics with other aesthetically pleasing sports such as gymnastics and dance. The purpose of this investigation was to ascertain whether the highest ranked synchronised swimmers in the United Kingdom experience menstrual abnormalities, a common medical problem seen in these related activities.
METHODS
Twenty three members of the Great Britain synchronised swimming squad completed a questionnaire on menstrual history. Body composition and VO(2)MAX were measured in the laboratory during regular physiological screening.
RESULTS
Three of the 23 subjects were oligomenorrhoeic and none were amenorrhoeic. All were postmenarchal. Mean estimated body fat percentage was 23%, and mean VO(2)MAX was 47.2 ml/kg/min.
CONCLUSIONS
It appears that synchronised swimmers in the United Kingdom are relatively protected from menstrual disturbances for reasons that cannot be explained in isolation.
目的
花样游泳是一项与体操和舞蹈等其他观赏性运动具有某些共同特征的运动。本研究的目的是确定英国排名最高的花样游泳运动员是否存在月经异常，这是这些相关运动中常见的医学问题。
方法
英国花样游泳队的23名队员完成了一份关于月经史的问卷。在定期的生理筛查期间，于实验室测量身体成分和最大摄氧量（VO₂MAX）。
结果
23名受试者中有3名月经过少，无闭经者。所有受试者均已初潮。平均估计体脂百分比为23%，平均最大摄氧量为47.2毫升/千克/分钟。
结论
英国的花样游泳运动员似乎相对不易出现月经紊乱，原因尚无法单独解释。
