Detailed Description
polycystic ovarian syndrome is a complex endocrine condition characterized by metabolic abnormalities such as insulin resistance, excess weight or obesity, diabetes, and an increased risk of cardiovascular disease.Despite previous studies reported that physical exercise improves insulin resistance in females with polycystic ovarian syndrome, there is no study yet investigate the effect of whole body vibration on insulin resistance
Study Design
Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: whole body vibration the patient will be received whole body vibration for three times/ week in addition to aerobic exercise for 3 times per week, 45 minutes per session for eight weeks |
Device: whole body vibration
the patients will stand on whole body vibration device with maintaining squatting position while keeping their trunk extended. The first training session will be consisted of three sets of 1 min and will be separated by a 1-min of standing rest. intensity will 1 mm. Then one set will be added every session
Device: Treadmill
Females will be asked to perform moderate intensity aerobic exercise for 45 minutes for 3 times per week for 8 weeks
|
Active Comparator: Aerboic exercise Moderate intensity aerobic exercise in form of walking on treadmill for 3 times per week, 45 minutes per session for eight weeks |
Device: Treadmill
Females will be asked to perform moderate intensity aerobic exercise for 45 minutes for 3 times per week for 8 weeks

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Homeostasis Model Assessment (HOMA-IR) [eight weeks]
Estimate insulin resistance (IR), it will be calculated according to the formula: fasting insulin (microU/L) x fasting glucose (nmol/L)/22.5.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Waist circumference [eight weeks]
by a tape measurement around the waist
- waist hip ratio [eight weeks]
The formula = waist circumference / hip circumference.
- LH/FSH ratio [Eight weeks]
To assess the severity of PCOS
