Tytuł: Anthropometric correlates of progesterone and [beta]-estradiol levels in menstrual cycles of urban and rural women aged 24-37
Abstrakt:
Variation in ovarian reproductive hormone levels is found between populations, between individuals and within individuals and the causes of this variance are not fully explained. The aim of the study was to investigate the relationship between levels of estradiol and progesterone in menstrual cycles and women’s nutritional status defined by the anthropometric variables. 184 women, aged 24 to 37, from Krakow and selected villages of Limanowa district participated in the study. Anthropometric measurements of height, weight, body fat percent, subscapular and triceps skinfold thickness, breast, underbreast, waist and hips circumferences were taken at the beginning of the study period. Additionally, body mass index, waist-to-hip ratio and breast-to-underbreast ratio were calculated. Estradiol and progesterone levels were analyzed in the saliva samples taken by women daily across one entire menstrual cycle. After adjusting for age, place of living, physical activity and cigarette smoking relationship between percentage of body fat and estradiol levels was found. Women characterized by average concentration of body fat between 22 to 32% had higher level of midcycle and preovulatory estradiol compared to women with lowest and highest body fat percent. Relationship between estradiol levels and breast size was also observed. Women with the biggest breasts (breast-to-underbreast ratio g ; reater than 1,18) had lower level of mean, midcycle, preovulatory and follicular estradiol compared to women with the average or small breast size. No consistent relationship was found between investigated anthropometric variables and progesterone levels.
