There are few studies on the correlation between energy availability (EA) and subclinical menstrual disorders (SMD) in female athletes. This study aims to explore the differences in EA between female athletes with eumenorrhea and those with SMD, and the correlation between EA and the occurrence of SMD.
Luteal phase defect (LPD) and anovulation were defined as SMD. Fifty-six adult female college athletes with regular menstrual cycles and no clinical symptoms of menstrual disorders (MD) were selected as subjects. The EA of the subjects was monitored, and SMD were identified. The EA was compared between the two groups, and the correlation between EA and the occurrence of SMD was analyzed.
Nineteen subjects were identified as LPD, and 7 subjects were identified as anovulation. The occurrence of SMD was 46.4%. The EA of subjects with SMD was lower than that of subjects with eumenorrhea ( = 3.165, = 0.003), and EA was negatively correlated with the occurrence of SMD ( = -0.396, = 0.000).
There were differences in EA between female college athletes with eumenorrhea and SMD. EA was negatively correlated with the occurrence of SMD.
关于女运动员能量可利用性(EA)与亚临床月经紊乱(SMD)之间相关性的研究较少。本研究旨在探讨月经正常的女运动员与患有SMD的女运动员在EA方面的差异,以及EA与SMD发生之间的相关性。
黄体期缺陷(LPD)和无排卵被定义为SMD。选取56名月经周期规律且无月经紊乱(MD)临床症状的成年女大学生运动员作为研究对象。监测研究对象的EA,并确定是否存在SMD。比较两组之间的EA,并分析EA与SMD发生之间的相关性。
19名研究对象被确定为LPD,7名研究对象被确定为无排卵。SMD的发生率为46.4%。患有SMD的研究对象的EA低于月经正常的研究对象(= 3.165,= 0.003),且EA与SMD的发生呈负相关(= -0.396,= 0.000)。
月经正常的女大学生运动员与患有SMD的女大学生运动员在EA方面存在差异。EA与SMD的发生呈负相关。
