Summary

This study looks at whether strength training done during a specific phase of the menstrual cycle can reduce fatigue and improve quality of life in women with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis. Twenty women with MS and a matched group without MS will take part. Researchers will measure fatigue, energy, pain, and satisfaction with physical activity to see if personalized exercise timing makes a difference.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
strength training sessions timed to the early follicular phase of the menstrual cycle
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward personalized exercise programs that help women with MS manage fatigue and feel better day-to-day.
What could go wrong
This is a very small, early-stage study with only 20 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The intervention is just exercise, not a new drug, so any benefit is likely modest.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Ages

18 to 50 years

Sex

Female participants only

Healthy volunteers

Accepted

You do not need to have the condition being studied to take part.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion criteria include: * Women of reproductive age (18-50 years) with MS will be included, with the upper age limit adjusted to reflect the reproductive phase;. * No iron-deficiency anemia. * Stable disease phase. * Independent walking ability for over 10 meters. Women will be recruited first and later matched with men based on age, EDSS, and lifestyle habits (physical activity, smoking, and alcohol consumption). Exclusion criteria will include participants with MS who: * Score \<1 or \>6 on the EDSS. * Report a relapse within 12 months before the study begins. * Have taken corticosteroid treatment within the last 2 months. * Have participated in a structured training program in the previous 6 months. Once all women with MS are recruited, male participants will be recruited following a 1:1 matching methodology based on age, geographic region, and lifestyle habits.
