THE RISK OF LOW ENERGY AVAILABILITY, BODY IMAGE, AND MENSTRUAL CYCLE PERCEPTION IN FEMALE DANCERS
Original language description
Introduction: Based on the Relative Energy Deficiency in Dance (RED-D) consensus statement recommendation, the aim of this study was to screen the prevalence of low energy availability in dancers from difierent dance genres. Furthermore, this study aimed to analyze the menstrual cycle perception, symptoms, and communication; and assess the relationship between body image, dancer identity, orthorexia nervosa tendencies, and the risk of low energy availability in dancers. Materials and Methods: A total of 29 female dancers on the competitive level completed the survey. The survey consisted of several questionnaires: LEAF-Q, DIMS, ORTO-R, PFRS, actual-ideal weight discrepancy, and questions on menstrual cycle perception. Results: The observed prevalence of menstrual cycle disorders was 31% to 65.5%, the prevalence of menstruation-related symptoms was up to 97%, and the prevalence of risk score of LEAF-Q was 24%. Conclusions: These results highlight the need for open communication about the menstrual cycle between dancers and coaches/choreographers. Furthermore, the tendency to prefer lower body weight/BMI and the observed prevalence of risk score of LEAF-Q in dancers highlight the need for education about RED-D.
