Exercise Before Pregnancy Reduces Risk of Pelvic Girdle Pain

Pelvic girdle pain is common in pregnant women and is associated with
disability, depression, reduced quality of life and higher prevalence of
sick leave - both during and after pregnancy. New research suggests that
pre-pregnancy exercise can help reduce the pain.
.
The study, published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine, finds
that high-impact sports such as jogging, ball games and aerobics up to
five times a week may be most helpful.
.
The exact causes of pregnancy-related pelvic girdle pain are unclear.
Women with a high body mass index (BMI) are known to be affected more, but
the effect of other modifiable factors, such as exercise, have not been
well studied.
.
Regular exercise has been proven to increase cardiovascular fitness,
muscular strength and flexibility, and to prevent obesity. Aerobic
exercise leads to endorphin production, which may reduce sensitivity to
pain and produce feelings of relaxation. Pre-pregnancy exercise has been
shown to reduce lower back pain, but exercise during pregnancy also
reduces the risk of complications.
.
Up to 1 year after giving birth, 2-3% continue to suffer
.
Pelvic girdle pain includes pain in the rear of the pelvis and at the
joint where the pubic bones meet at the front (the symphysis pubis). It is
relatively common during pregnancy, and 2-3% of women may continue to
experience it up to a year after the birth.
.
Researchers hypothesized that exercise could be a modifiable factor for
pelvic girdle pain in pregnancy.
.
Since women with pelvic girdle pain would be less likely to exercise while
pregnant, the study focused on the frequency of exercise before pregnancy.
.
Participants in the study were 39,000 women who were expecting their first
child between 2000 and 2009. They formed part of the Norwegian Mother and
Child Cohort Study, which has been tracking the health and well-being of a
cross section of Norwegian women, recruited between 1999 and 2008, and
their children. Average age was 38, but it ranged from 14-46.
