Abstract

Background: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine disorder that is characterized by menstrual irregularity and elevated serum androgens, and is often accompanied by insulin resistance. Materials & Methods: In these 12- week prospective study included 86 patients diagnosed with PCOS, aged 24 to 32 years. Excercise are with choice of participants within aerobics. The pre and post assessment were taken to measure the fasting glucose, fasting insulin, HOMA-IR and body composition. Result: The HOMA-IR baseline was 1.24(±0.63) which decreased to 0.86(±0.36) after 12 weeks. The Body composition baseline BMI (kg/m2), Waist circumference, Waist Hip ratio, Neck circumference and Body fat percentage was 28.44 (±2.05), 82.56 (±3.43), 0.87 (±0.06), 32.16 (±2.57), and 37.79 (±3.15)  was significantly reduced to 27.49(±2.01), 81.16(±3.56), 0.86 (±0.07), 31.97 (±2.43) and 36.55 (±3.36)after the exercise programme (p<0.00001). In contrast, paired T-test analysis showed no such significant difference for variables Hip circumference when compared with the post test. Conclusion: The home-based aerobic exercise programme reduced HOMA-IR, and body composition. Although more research on the effects of aerobic exercises in PCOS is needed, these findings support aerobic exercise's effectiveness in reducing inflammation and enhancing insulin sensitivity in these patients.
