Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The study was conducted to determine the effect of visceral manipulation on menstrual irregularities and hormonal profile in women with polycystic ovarian syndrome. Thirty women were randomly and equally assigned into the group (A) (Control group), who received a low caloric diet (1200 Kcal/day) only for 3 months, and the group (B) (Study group), who received visceral manipulation to the pelvic organs and the related structures in addition to the same low-calorie diet as the group (A). Evaluations pre and post-study were done for body weight, BMI, female reproductive hormones, and menstruation-related problems.
