Introduction: 3. Introduction: Studies have shown that there is a strong connection between inactivity and infertility. Sports activities improve the secretion of sex hormones in women due to the improvement of blood circulation and secretions of endocrine glands. On the other hand, both honey and cinnamon are very effective foods in increasing the secretion of hormones involved in fertility. Cinnamon is a spice with antioxidant and anti-diabetic properties. It is a very good source of minerals such as potassium, iron, the factor that supplies blood to the glands, and calcium. The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of aerobic exercise alone and with supplements. effects of honey and cinnamon on hormonal parameters in infertile women aged 20 to 25 years.
Methods: In this research, 60 infertile women (this group of women who had less than half an hour of physical activity and movement per day) with an average age of 20 to 25 and a similar BMI were randomly selected. The subjects were divided into two groups: exercise in water alone and exercise with honey and cinnamon supplements. The training protocol of water exercise is eight weeks, three days each week, and two hours of aerobic exercise every day (starting with 50% of the maximum heart rate in the first and second weeks, and in the seventh and eighth weeks, the training intensity reached 75% of the maximum heart rate. which were controlled with smart watches and polar heart rate monitors) in water at a depth of one meter and daily consumption of 150 mg of cinnamon and 16 grams of pure honey was given half an hour before the start of training. Then, the measurement of thyroid hormones (TSH, T4, T3) and sex hormones LH, FSH, Estrogen, Progesterone in the obtained sera was done by ELISA method. Finally, SPSS software and Independent-samples T-Test were used.
Results: The level of thyroid hormone in the statistical test did not show a significant difference in the secretion of basic thyroid hormones (p>0.05). However, the levels of LH-FSH-PROGESTRONE-ESTROGEN hormones showed a significant difference in the training and dietary supplement groups (p≤0.05).
Conclusion: Water sports and hydrotherapy have an effect on the function of endocrine glands, especially sex hormones. But the lack of change in thyroid hormones may have been caused by the type and duration of training. And in this case, it is better to control and review the type and intensity of exercise.
