Device: whole body vibration
Device: Treadmill
Registration Number
NCT05215223
Lead Sponsor
Cairo University
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of whole body vibration on insulin resistance in females with polycystic ovarian syndrome

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

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
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
NameTimeMethod
Waist circumferenceeight weeks

by a tape measurement around the waist

waist hip ratioeight weeks

The formula = waist circumference / hip circumference.

LH/FSH ratioEight weeks

To assess the severity of PCOS
