The present study investigated the relationship between menstrual status and bone mineral density (BMD). Sixty-three elite female athletes competing at the regional level participated. Self-reported menstrual status, stress during the past 6 months, dietary intake of calcium, blood samples for hormonal study, mid-thigh skinfold thickness, triceps, iliac crest, spine and femoral neck BMD were determined. It was found that more than half of the athletes were eumenorrheic while almost half were…

Bone mineral density in collegiate female athletes: comparisons among sports.
TLDR
Runners and swimmers and divers demonstrated some deficits in site-specific BMD values when compared with athletes in other sports, and athletic trainers should consider her mass and sport type with regard to her bone health.
Female boxers have high bone mineral density despite low body fat mass, high energy expenditure, and a high incidence of oligomenorrhea.
TLDR
High BMD in boxers, despite low fat mass, high PAEE, and an increased incidence of oligomenorrhea suggest that boxing has a positive effect on BMD.
Dietary Habits, Menstrual Health, Body Composition, and Eating Disorder Risk Among Collegiate Volleyball Players: A Descriptive Study
TLDR
It is suggested that collegiate female volleyball players’ diets tend to be inadequate in calories, protein, and carbohydrates, placing them at risk for subsequent medical ailments including menstrual dysfunction.
Nutritional knowledge and eating behaviors of female, collegiate swimmers.
TLDR
It is suggested that athletes lack knowledge of nutrition, healthy food choices, components of a well-balanced diet, and the implications of nutrition on performance.
Das Knochenödem am Fuß
TLDR
Nonweight bearing in addition to analgesics and physiotherapy are the major principles in the treatment, however, if possible, local overload or a hind foot malalignment should be reduced by insoles.
A Survey study of the Nutritional awareness and Eating Behaviors of Female Collegiate Kabaddi players
The purpose of this study was to determine the nutr itional awareness of female collegiate Kabaddi players and how effectively they apply their nutritional awareness to their everyday eating habits.…
Explosive strength in female 11-on-11 versus 7-on-7 soccer players
TLDR
7FPs tended to have higher explosive performance during SJ compared to 11FPs, and they had a significantly lower elastic recoil index at all three evaluations, which may be due to the characteristics of 7-on-7 soccer, in which the neuromuscular and explosive strength demands are higher than those of 11- on-11 soccer.
Effectiveness of surface electromyographic biofeedback-triggered neuromuscular electrical stimulation on knee rehabilitation.
TLDR
Using sEMG-triggered NMES intervention improved extension AROM but did not improve function or torque, and no significant difference was found between groups in the LEFS, nor in the peak isometric extensor torque.

Bone mineral density in professional female dancers.
TLDR
Professional female dancers with a history of delayed menarche and amenorrhoea have been identified as another group of premenopausal women potentially at risk of developing osteoporosis because of a decrease in BMD at the lumbar spine.
Lumbar bone mineral density in adolescent female runners.
TLDR
It was concluded that there is no significant difference among amenorrheic runners, eumenorrheics runners, and controls in lumbar BMD, however, a longer period of amenorrhea might result in significantly lower BMD for the amenorrHEic runners.
Menstrual function and bone mass in elite women distance runners. Endocrine and metabolic features.
TLDR
Bone mass and metabolic features were studied in women distance runners and found that intense exercise may reduce the impact of amenorrhea on bone mass; however, amenorrheic runners remain at high risk for exercise-related fractures.
Longitudinal monitoring of bone mass accumulation in healthy adolescents: evidence for a marked reduction after 16 years of age at the levels of lumbar spine and femoral neck in female subjects.
TLDR
The results indicate that in a cohort of healthy females with apparently adequate intakes of energy and calcium, bone mass accumulation is drastically reduced by 16 yr of age in both lumbar spine and femoral neck.

Exercise and bone mineral density in mature female athletes.
TLDR
Results suggest that females who participate regularly in the premenopausal years in high impact physical activity tend to have higher BMD than nonathletic controls.
Impact of exercise on bone health and contraindication of oral contraceptive use in young women.
TLDR
Exercise in oral contraceptive users prevented the increase observed in the spine of the nonexercise plus OCont group, and exercise prevented a decline in TBBMC seen in the nonexercisers.
Body Composition and Menstrual Function in Athletes
TLDR
The probability of finding menstrual dysfunction in very lean athletes is high, but not absolute, and there is no assurance that dysfunction will improve merely by increasing body weight, while recent research on very lean, long term amenorrhoeic athletes who train intensely and show a loss of bone mineral is of concern.
Bone gain in young adult women.
TLDR
Gain in bone mass occurs in healthy young women during the third decade of life and physical activity and dietary calcium intake both exert a positive effect on this bone gain, and use of oral contraceptives exerts a further independent positive effect.
Bone health is not affected by luteal phase abnormalities and decreased ovarian progesterone production in female runners.
TLDR
Luteal phase disturbances occur independent of training volume, and volume of training does not have to be severe to result in menstrual disturbances.
