Journal ArticleDOI
Cyclic ovarian function in recreational athletes.
A. Broocks,Karl-Martin Pirke,Ulrich Schweiger,Reinhard J. Tuschl,Reinhold G. Laessle,T. Strowitzki,E. Hörl,T. Hörl,W. Haas,D. Jeschke +9 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that recreational running is associated with altered ovarian function and inadequate nutritional adaptation may be a contributing factor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dieting causes menstrual irregularities in normal weight young women through impairment of episodic luteinizing hormone secretion
Karl M. Pirke,Ulrich Schweiger,Thomas Strowitzki,Reinhard J. Tuschl,Reinhold G. Laessle,A. Broocks,Brigitte Huber,Ralf Middendorf +7 more
TL;DR: Comparison of both cycles revealed that episodic luteinizing hormone (LH) secretion during the follicular phase was altered by dieting, and average LH concentrations and the frequency of episodic secretions were significantly reduced during the folicular phase but not during the luteal phase.
Journal ArticleDOI
Everyday eating behavior and menstrual function in young women
Ulrich Schweiger,Reinhard J. Tuschl,Petra Platte,A. Broocks,Reinhold G. Laessle,Karl-Martin Pirke +5 more
TL;DR: High cognitive restraint in everyday eating behavior may be a risk factor for the development of menstrual disturbance in young women.
Journal ArticleDOI
The influence of semistarvation-induced hyperactivity on hypothalamic serotonin metabolism.
TL;DR: Data indicate that serotonin turnover in the medial basal hypothalamus is increased as a consequence of semistarvation and hyperactivity, and this effect was further enhanced by hyperactivity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Semistarvation-induced hyperactivity compensates for decreased norepinephrine and dopamine turnover in the mediobasal hypothalamus of the rat.
TL;DR: The combined influence of semistarvation and hyperactivity on central catecholamine turnover in the rat is discussed as an animal model for the effects of malnutrition and heavy exercise often observed in anorexia nervosa.
