Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

High rate of injuries detected during certain periods of menstrual cycle, raised the suggestion of the effecacy of the female sex hormones on soft tissue and neuromuscular control with subsequent deterioration of postural stability and high injury prevalence in post pubertal females so the aim of the present study is to investigate the effect of female sex hormones on postural stability in post pubertal females.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Thirty-six post pubertal females will participate in this study. They will be selected from students and graduates of Faculty of Physical Therapy, Deraya University and they will be assigned into one group. Postural stability assessment will be carried out throughout three menstrual cycle phases, early follicular, ovulation and mid luteal phases by Biodex balance system. The timing of menstrual cycle phases will be determined by measuring serum estradiol and progesterone level. The exact time of ovulation will be determined by urine lutenizing hormone ovulatory strip test.
