The age between 18-25 years participants will perform the aerobic exercises during the different phases of menstrual cycle. A sample will be divided into two groups each group have 21 participants. The Group A control group will Education and Self-Management about health and fitness and perform the walk. Group B intervention group will be given the Aerobic exercise (cycling, treadmill and running). The participants assessed with Borg scale for rate perceived exertion, berg balance questionnaire use for performance test parameters and menstrual stress questionnaire use for behaviour. Data will be analyzed by using SPSS version 26.0.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
vertical jump test	baseline and fourth week	Have each athlete perform between 3 and 5 single, maximal effort jumps, separated by at least 1 minute. Good vertical jump scores vary depending on the type of jump, i.e. counter movement, squat jump, with arms, without arms etc. The following two sets of normative data are both based on vertical jumps being performed with a counter movement and the use of arms.
heart rate	baseline and fourth week	The point of 6 correlates to a heart rate of 60 beats per minute in a healthy adult, 7 for 70 beats per minute, and so on. The scoring system measures the extreme ranges of exertion on a scale of 6 to 20.
