Regular
menstruation is a fundamental indicator of women's reproductive health and
quality of life. However, menstrual disorders affect many women, which is due
to two key factors: BMI and physical activity. A study that analyzed the
relationship of these two factors to menstrual disorders found that PMS and
dysmenorrhea are the most common menstrual disorders, which are majorly
reported in obese and underweight subjects and in those with low and high
physical activity.
Hence, it is essential to understand that there is a significant relationship between menstrual disorder, BMI, and physical activity. Gynecologists should advise women to focus on a balanced, nutritious diet and engage in moderate physical activity to improve their reproductive health and quality of life.
