Resumo
O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a influência da atividade física/exercício físico e musculação na qualidade de vida e intensidade dos sintomas ondas de calor, sudorese, fadiga, irritabilidade, dor muscular, ressecamento vaginal, dispareunia, urgência para urinar, insônia, perda de libído, ganho de peso, dores articulares e dores de cabeça, referidos por um grupo de mulheres com 40 anos ou mais em relação à menopausa. Estudo descritivo e comparativo, utilizando questionários sobre dados socioculturais, histórico de atividade física, práticas atuais e qualidade de vida, com perguntas fechadas, validados e adaptados para coleta de dados. A amostra foi de 144 mulheres acima de 40 anos da região do Vale do Taquari, RS. As participantes deveriam ser praticantes de exercício físico e/ou musculação por pelo menos seis meses ou serem insuficientemente ativas. Os dados foram analisados por estatística descritiva (média, desvio padrão e distribuição de frequência) e teste de qui-quadrado para comparação de proporções, com nível de significância p<0,05, usando o software SPSS. No que diz respeito ao histórico de atividade física durante a vida da mulher, em geral, mulheres que se relataram muito ativas tendem a relatar menor intensidade dos sintomas em comparação com mulheres que se relataram ativas e sedentárias. E no que diz respeito a intensidade dos sintomas quando comparados ao tipo de atividade física, em geral, as pessoas que praticam exercícios ou musculação relataram menor intensidade dos sintomas. Quanto à qualidade de vida (QV), mulheres que se relataram muito ativas ao longo da vida e praticam musculação há pelo menos seis meses hoje em dia, apresentaram melhores resultados na QV geral, física e social. Em conclusão, este estudo afirma a importância da atividade física regular, especialmente a musculação, na promoção da saúde e do bem-estar das mulheres, destacando seu papel significativo na melhoria da QV e na redução da intensidade dos sintomas físicos durante a menopausa.
The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of physical activity/exercise and weight training on the quality of life and the intensity of symptoms such as hot flashes, sweating, fatigue, irritability, muscle pain, vaginal dryness, dyspareunia, urgency to urinate, insomnia, loss of libido, weight gain, joint pain, and headaches, reported by a group of women aged 40 or older in relation to menopause. This is a descriptive and comparative study, using questionnaires on sociocultural data, physical activity history, current practices, and quality of life, with closed questions, validated and adapted for data collection. The sample consisted of 144 women over 40 years old from the Vale do Taquari region, RS. Participants had to have been engaged in physical exercise and/or weight training for at least six months or be insufficiently active. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics (mean, standard deviation, and frequency distribution) and chi-square test for proportion comparison, with a significance level of p<0.05, using SPSS software. Regarding the history of physical activity throughout a woman's life, in general, women who reported being very active tended to report lower symptom intensity compared to women who reported being active and sedentary. As for the intensity of symptoms when compared to the type of physical activity, in general, those who practiced exercises or weight training reported lower symptom intensity. Regarding quality of life (QoL), women who reported being very active throughout their lives and have been practicing weight training for at least six months presented better results in overall, physical, and social QoL. In conclusion, this study affirms the importance of regular physical activity, especially weight training, in promoting women's health and well-being, highlighting its significant role in improving QoL and reducing the intensity of physical symptoms during menopause.
