对荷尔蒙避孕药 (HCs) 和体育表现的研究正在增长. 然而,研究质量并没有改善,需要对使用多种HC的精英运动员进行更多研究.
科学领域:
- 运动医学 运动医学
- 内分泌学 在内分泌学.
- 运动生理学 运动生理学
背景情况:
- 荷尔蒙避孕药 (HC) 的使用会改变卵巢荷尔蒙的形状,而不是eumenorrheic妇女.
- 女运动员中HC使用率的增加需要了解它们对运动表现的影响.
- 以前的研究集中在特定类型的HC上,对各种避孕方法和精英运动员群体的调查有限.
研究的目的:
- 对荷尔蒙避孕药和运动表现的现有研究进行审计.
- 评估使用的HC类型,运动员口径,表现结果和研究的方法质量.
- 确定差距,并为未来的研究方向提供建议.
主要方法:
- 对研究荷尔蒙避孕药和运动表现的研究进行系统审查和审计.
- 基于HC类型的研究分类 (口服避孕药,长效可逆避孕药等). ),运动员的训练状态 (训练有素,精英,国际) 和绩效指标.
- 评估研究设计和方法质量,重点关注对卵巢激素特征的控制.
主要成果:
- 在61项研究中报告了68种不同的HC,其中组合口服避孕药是最常见的 (60%).
- 只有11%的参与者被归类为训练有素或精英/国际;没有包括世界级运动员.
- 尽管过去十年研究数量增加了两倍,但"黄金标准"研究的比例没有改善,近年来一直在下降.
结论:
- 目前关于激素避孕药和运动表现的研究受限于方法质量和缺乏对精英运动员群体的关注.
- 未来的研究应该采用严格的设计,并研究更广泛的HC在训练有素的世界级运动员中.
- 这种方法将提高女性运动员使用荷尔蒙避孕药的研究结果的相关性和影响.

Exercise and Cardiovascular Response
Light to moderate physical activity initiates a series of interconnected responses in the body. The heart rate modestly increases in anticipation of the workout, followed by widespread vasodilation as oxygen consumption by skeletal muscles increases. This results in decreased peripheral resistance, increased capillary blood flow, and accelerated...
Target Cell Response to Hormones
Notably, the cellular response can be regulated by altering the number of receptors expressed in the cell. For example, prolonged exposure to elevated hormone levels results in a gradual decline or down-regulation in the number of receptors for that specific hormone on the cell surface. Conversely, in response to low hormone levels, cells may use up-regulation, producing an...
Hormonal Regulation of the Menstrual Cycle
At puberty, GnRH begins a pulsatile release pattern, which triggers the anterior pituitary gland to secrete follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH). The frequency and amplitude of GnRH pulses vary across the menstrual cycle, with faster pulses favoring LH release and slower pulses favoring FSH...
Hormonal Control of the Ovarian Cycle
Before puberty, the hypothalamus releases GnRH in a low frequency, low amplitude pulsatile manner. This along with the immature hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis activity, results in low estrogen levels and the absence of a fully functional ovarian cycle. At puberty, GnRH secretion increases in both frequency and...
Hormonal Regulation of Blood Pressure
Epinephrine and Norepinephrine
The adrenal medulla releases epinephrine and norepinephrine, catecholamines that enhance and extend the sympathetic or "fight or flight" physiological response. These hormones escalate heart rate and the force of contraction...
