The development of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome has been linked to chronic low-grade inflammation (PCOS). In this context, the current study looked into the effects of aerobic exercise on IL6, TNF, and C-reactive protein (CRP) in PCOS women. This was a randomized clinical trial including 40 females diagnosed with PCOS who were between the ages of 25 and 35. The participants were divided into two groups, each with an equal number of individuals: aerobic exercise (AEM) and Metformin (M). At baseline and after 12 weeks of intervention, participants' levels of IL6, TNF, and CRP were measured.

| Aerobic exercise in addition to Metformin treatment | Other | The aerobic exercises were walking on the treadmill for 30 minutes at a 0% slope, including three phases: the warming-up phase, which consisted of walking on the treadmill for five minutes at low intensity (30% of Maximum Heart Rate, MHR), the actual phase, which consisted of walking on the treadmill for 20 min at moderate intensity (60 -70% of MHR) and the cooling phase, which consisted of walking on the treadmill for five minutes at low intensity (30% of MHR). The MHR was calculated according to the equation (210- age in years). Both the AEM and M groups received metformin 1,500 mg daily for a further 12 weeks. |
