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,...

Strolená, Alena ; Křivánková, Markéta (advisor) ; Nováková, Pavlína (referee)
Title: Possibilities of preventing painful menstruation and the specifics of women in sports. Objectives: The aim of this thesis is to compare methods focusing on exercise eliminatig or alleviating menstrual pain and also describe the specifics of women in sports in more detail. Methods: The main research method of the theoretical part of this diploma thesis is a search of Czech and foreign literature available from the university libraries of the Charles University, the Regional Science Library in Liberec, and then expert articles from the scientific databases Web of Science, Scopus and Pubmed. The practical part uses a method of comparison. Results: Premenstrual syndrome is followed by both emotional and physical changes. The occurrence and intensity of this syndrome is caused by neurohormonal and neurotransmitter changes, but also by the woman's lifestyle (symptoms worsened by stress, poor nutrition). There is also a close connection with painful menstruation (so-called dysmenorrhoea) and improper function of the pelvic floor muscles. Well-known methods focusing on pelvic floor exercises include the Moses Method, Kegel exercises, DNS method, and hormonal yoga. Three studies focused on Kegel exercises showed an improvement in the course of PMS and a decrease of incontinence, with the DNS method...

Title: Menstrual Disorders in Ballet Dancers and Orienteering Runners Objectives: The aim of this thesis is to determine prevalence of selected menstrual disorders in ballet dancers and orienteering runners. The data were analyzed and compared to available literature. Methods: The theoretical part of this thesis is a summary of available literature. The data for the research were collected by anonymous non-standardized questionnaire and processed by descriptive analysis, which was proceeded in Microsoft Excel 2010, Statistika and NCSS free version. Qualitative data were evaluated by qualitative analysis. Results: A total of 103 women participated in the research, 57 women from general population (control group), 24 ballet dancers and 22 orienteering runners. The significant higher age at menarché was found in ballet dancers group (Chi square, p = 0,038; p < 0,05) as well in group of orienteering runners (Chi square, p = 0,032; p < 0,05) compared to cotrol group. There was proved a significant deviation of prevalence of secondary amenorrhea in ballet dancers group compared to orienteering runners (Chi square, p = 0,024; p < 0,05). There was no significant difference in prevalence of dysmenorrhea among groups. We found a mild positive correlation between hours of training per week and intensity of...

Physiotherapy of pelvic floor and its effect on menstrual problems in women
ŠTĚPÁNOVÁ, Kristina
The topic of my bachelor's work deals with issue of physiotherapy of pelvic floor and it's influence on menstrual difficulties among women. The main goal of this work is to describe possibilities of physiotherapeutical methods of exercising for pelvic floor among women with dysmenorhea. Partial goal is to create an educational leaflet for needs of these women. In order to make the probands feel better a periodic exercising was implemented. It contained special exercises focused on the right activation of the muscles of the pelvic floor. The theoretical part of the bachelor's work is focused on the anatomical relations and the function of the area of pelvis and pelvic floor. Furthermore it defines dysfuncions of pelvic floor. After that comes the definition of menstural cycle and it's hormonal indicators and list of malfunctions of menstrual cycle. In the last chapter of the theoretical part is covered a part which presents selected physiotherapeutical paradigms and supportive medical methods used for dysmenorhea. For preparation of the practical part was used the method of qualitative research.Three probands suffering from dysmenorhea and various symptoms of premenstruall syndorme were studied. The research group was between 24 - 30 years of age. The anamnesis of probands were made, the initial kineziological analyses were made and after the end of the therapy the final kineziological analyses were made. The founded data and the results of research have been worked into. For each of the probands was made an individual plan of rehabilitation by their diagnostics. Therapy took time from 20 weeks sice the first of January 2015 till May 2015. At the beginning the therapy was made once a week and in next day it was once in 14 days in duration of 45 minutes per exercise. 15 therapies should be made with each of probands. The research can be found helpful for probands, because the positive effects of the therapy were seen at each of them. The problems of dysmenorhea have became better, also the pain of locomotive system have been reduced, the patients condition have improved and the psychological problems have been reduced. Last but not least almost all the probands have stopped using analgesics in the context of dysmenorhea. This bachelor's work can be used for physiotherapeutical purposes not only for women suffering from dysmenorhea but even for women suffering from premenstrual syndrome. It can also be useful for students of physiotherapy and physiotherapists in clinical practice for comprehensive orientation in specified area and it also can be used as an information booklet for specialists and laymen.
