The best performances were felt by tennis players around ovulation (12th - 17th day of the cycle). The most common problem at female players was irregular menstruation an three tennis players also had amenorrhea, which is probably rela- ted to high training doses. For 4 respondents, there was a response that PMS did not affect their perfor- mance both in training and in matches. Other female players have fatigue and abdominal pain as a symptom of PMS. It has been shown, that female players do not adapt training if they have small pain, if they have big pain, they adapt training (for example playing strokes from the spot, technical skills). Four out of eight respondents use hormonal...

The role of the menstrual cycle and its synchronization in a relationship between two women
Nováková, Tereza ; Fanta, Michael (advisor) ; Fučík, Tomáš (referee)
This bachelor thesis is focused on the issue of menstrual synchronization and is designed as a theoretical-practical thesis. The theoretical part describes the physiological menstrual cycle, including its hormonal regulation and hormones involved in this control; all phases of the menstrual cycle and other cyclical changes that regularly occur in the female organism. The thesis also outlines the effect that psychological aspects may have on the character of the menstrual cycle and discusses in detail the issues of premenstrual syndrome and premenstrual dysphoric disorder. The theoretical part is concluded with a chapter focused on menstrual synchronization itself. The main aim of this thesis is to determine whether menstrual synchrony occurs in partner relationships. The sub-objectives of this thesis are to find out whether this synchronization occurs more frequently between female partners or cohabitants, after how long cohabitation synchronization occurs and what symptoms of premenstrual syndrome occur in the respondents. The practical part focuses on the role of menstruation and its synchronisation in the studied groups in the form of a questionnaire survey. The target group is lesbian women, the control group is cohabitants. The questionnaire was posted online on social media from January 1,...

Title: The effect of the menstrual cycle on performance in sports Objective: The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of the menstrual cycle on performance in sport using the results obtained from previous studies dealing with the effect of the menstrual cycle on performance in sport. Methods: This thesis was carried out as a systematic review. Sources of information were scientific articles and studies from the PubMed, Scopus, EBSCOhost and EBSCOhost databases and literature related to the influence of the menstrual cycle on sports performance. Results: A total of 45 studies were selected for this study (9 cross-sectional, 33 cohort and 3 intervention studies). A total of 3086 probands (2364 from cross-sectional, 644 from cohort and 78 from intervention studies) aged 18 to 35 years were included. Conclusion: In most cases, no effect of MC on sports performance was found. If any effect was observed, the worst phase of MC for performance appeared to be the mid-luteal phase, while the best was the follicular phase.

The influence of physiotherapy in irregular menstrual cycle
Skalická, Františka ; Fabičovic, Klaudia (advisor) ; Novotná, Klára (referee)
BACHELOR THESIS ABSTRACT Author: Františka Skalická Supervisor: Mgr. Klaudia Fabičovic Consultant: MUDr. Vendula Parmová Title of bachelor thesis: The influence of physiotherapy in irregular menstrual cycle Abstract: Menstrual cycle disorders are nowadays a very common problem for many women. These include dysmenorrhea, premenstrual syndrome, functional female sterility or luteal insufficiency. Their etiology may also be associated with musculoskeletal dysfunction. Luteal insufficiency is considered to be a luteal phase of less than 12 days. This condition may be one of the possible causes of infertility, but studies on this topic are lacking. The aim of my bachelor's thesis is to evaluate the influence of luteal insufficiency using diagnostic and therapeutic approaches in physiotherapy. Three women with luteal insufficiency underwent individually tailored physiotherapy ongoing for 6 months with the aim of prolonging the luteal phase. The symptothermal method was used to objectify the length of the luteal phase before and after therapy, allowing easy and reliable control of the menstrual cycle and increasing the likelihood of conception through accurate timing of the fertile period. The main 4 pillars of therapy were postural correction, elimination of functional changes in the musculoskeletal system,...

Koukolíková, Magda ; Skřenková, Jana (advisor) ; Poncová, Renata (referee)
The menstrual cycle is a natural process in the life of almost every woman. For this reason, more emphasis should be placed on menstrual cycle education and awareness. Proper education about menstruation and the menstrual cycle positively affects the physical and mental health of the girl.

Principles of complex physiotherapy in childless women aged 20-40 years with functional disorders of the menstrual cycle
VÍTOVÁ, Alena
The topic of my bachelor´s thesis deals with principles of physiotherapy for childless women aged 20-40 with functional disorders of the menstrual cycle. The aim of this work is to describe the possibilities of physiotherapy for women with functional disorders of the menstrual cycle and their subsequent practical use, which is described in the kinesiological analyses of individual subjects. This thesis is divided into a theoretical and a practical part. The theoretical part deals with physiology and pathology of the menstrual cycle, the functional anatomy of the pelvic floor and the possibilities of therapy for menstrual disorders. The practical part is devoted to own research, in which three women with functional disorders of the menstrual cycle took part. In the practical part of the research, each subject underwent and initial kinesiology analysis and then an exercise unit was put together, which the participants practiced at home for two months. During this time frame, weekly appointments were scheduled for examination and follow-up therapy; the meetings were concluded by checking the exercises and adding new ones. At the end of the research, and output kinesiology analysis was performed, which was compared with the data obtained during the initial examination. The research can be considered beneficial, as it was possible to observe the positive effects of the therapy in all participants. However, for each woman the therapy had a different effect on solving menstrual problems. The word can serve physiotherapists and women who suffer from functional disorders of the menstrual cycle as a way to solve their problems other than pharmacologically.
