NCT02027168
Brief Summary:
This study will examine the impact of manual physical therapy on endocrine function in women diagnosed as being infertile due to elevated follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) levels (10 mIU/mL or higher) on days 2-5 of their menstrual cycle. It is hypothesized that the manual physical therapy will decrease FSH levels.
Detailed Description:
This study will investigate the effect of manual physical therapy on the endocrine levels of women by comparison of pre- and post- treatment hormone levels (FSH, LH and Estradiol). Secondary measures include assessment of pain and sexual function via questionnaires.
Hormones will be measured at prescribed time points:
* baseline: 30-60 days before treatment
* pre-treatment: 7-30 days before treatment
* post treatment 1: 10-30 days post treatment
* post treatment 2: 30-60 days post treatment
Pain and sexual function questionnaires will be completed:
* baseline: 30-60 days before treatment
* pre-treatment: 7-30 days before treatment
* post treatment 1: 30 days post treatment
* post treatment 2: 60 days post treatment
