Dissertation note: Thesis (M.Sc.) - Cairo University - Faculty of Physical Therapy - Department of Physical Therapy for Gynecology and Obstetrics Summary: This study was conducted to determine the effect of visceral manipulation on menstrual irregularities and hormonal profile in women with polycystic ovarian syndrome. Thirty women having polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) participated in this study. They were chosen from the Outpatient Clinic of Gynecology at Bab El Shaaria University Hospital. Their age ranged from (20-34) years, 25 {u2264} body mass index (BMI) < 30 kg/m2 and waist/ hip ratio {u2264} 0.8. They were randomly assigned into two groups equal in number. Group (A) (Control group), 15 PCOS women received low caloric diet (1200 Kcal/day) only for 3 months, while Group (B) (Study group), 15 PCOS women received visceral manipulation to the pelvic organs and their related structures (8 sessions, once per week in the 1st month then once every other week for 2 months) in addition to low caloric diet as in group (A). Evaluation pre and post study was done by measuring body weight, BMI, female reproductive hormones [luteinizing hormone (LH) , follicle- stimulating hormone (FSH) and LH/FSH ratio] and menstruation- related problems were evaluated by Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome Questionnaire (PCOSQ). Results showed that there was a statistically significant increase in FSH, a statistically significant reduction in weight, BMI, LH and LH/FSH ratio as well as a statistically significant improvement in menstrual complaints when comparing between pre and post study results in both groups (A&B). On comparing both groups, there was a statistically significant improvement in menstruation-related problems in group (B) than in group (A), while female reproductive hormones showed statistically non-significant difference between both groups (A&B) post study . Thus, it can be concluded that visceral manipulation is an effective, safe and easy to apply modality that can affect reproductive hormonal levels and improve menstrual irregularities in PCOS women
