Introduction. Menopause is the time when the female body goes through substantial endocrine changes resultant from the gradual phasing out of the reproductive activity of the ovaries. Consequently, post-menopausal women face some perimenopausal symptoms. These symptoms affect everyday physical and psychological functioning to various extent, and result in certain limitations. Aim. The aim of this paper was to study which limitations are most difficult for postmenopausal women, and how menopause symptoms affect women’s physical activity and satisfaction with life, as these are important components of quality of life. Materials and methods. The study involved 60 postmenopausal women. We used our own questionnaire. Results. We did not find the remaining relationships enumerated in research questions: the impact of menopausal syndromes on the frequency of physical activity, on its intensity, and on satisfaction with life, nor with the impact of subjective health on intensity of physical effort. Conclusions. We confirmed the relationship between intensity of physical effort and satisfaction with life and the relationship between subjective assessment of one’s health and the frequency of physical activity.

Background. Chinese traditional exercise (CTE) is showing promise in the treatment of depressive symptoms in perimenopausal and postmenopausal women, yet its overall effectiveness has not been evaluated based on existing randomized controlled trials (RCTs). Problem and aim. To systematically evaluate the effects of CTE on depressive symptoms in perimenopausal and postmenopausal women. Material and methods. Databases including China Knowledge Network Wanfang Data Knowledge Service Platform, PubMed, Web of Science, and Springer ebook were searched to identify randomized controlled trial studies regarding the effects of CTE (including Taichi, Baduanjin, Yijinjing, and Qigong) on depressive symptoms in perimenopausal and postmenopausal women. The search time frame was from the inception of each database to September 2022. Results. A total of 19 randomized controlled trials was included with 608 subjects for treatment and 594 for control. The pooled results showed that CTE significantly reduced depressive symptoms in perimenopausal and postmenopausal women (p = 0.0001). The subgroup analyses revealed significant effects of Taichi and Baduanjin on depressive symptoms (p < 0.05), while the effects of Yijinjing and Qigong appeared to be ineffective (p > 0.05). The exercise interventions that lasted for 1-12 weeks showed significant effects (p = 0.0007), while those that lasted for 12-48 weeks showed non-significant effects (p > 0.05) Conclusions. CTE may effectively treat depressive symptoms in perimenopausal and postmenopausal women. Taichi and Baduanjin are effective exercises, and an intervention duration of 1-12 weeks may be appropriate.

Tło. Chińskie ćwiczenia tradycyjne (CTE) są obiecujące w leczeniu objawów depresji u kobiet w okresie okołomenopauzalnym i pomenopauzalnym, jednak ich ogólna skuteczność nie została oceniona na podstawie istniejących randomizowanych badań kontrolowanych (RCT). Problem i cel. Systematyczna ocena wpływu CTE na objawy depresji u kobiet w okresie okołomenopauzalnym i pomenopauzalnym.Materiał i metody. Przeszukano bazy danych, w tym China Knowledge Network, Wanfang Data Knowledge Service Platform, PubMed, Web of Science i Springer ebook w celu zidentyfikowania randomizowanych, kontrolowanych badań dotyczących wpływu CTE (w tym Taichi, Baduanjin, Yijinjing i Qigong) na objawy depresyjne u kobiet w okresie okołomenopauzalnym i pomenopauzalnym. Ramy czasowe wyszukiwania obejmowały okres od powstania każdej bazy danych do września 2022 roku.Wyniki. Uwzględniono łącznie 19 randomizowanych, kontrolowanych badań z udziałem 608 osób leczonych i 594 osób kontrolnych. Zbiorcze wyniki wykazały, że CTE znacząco zmniejszyło objawy depresji u kobiet w okresie okołomenopauzalnym i pomenopauzalnym (p = 0,0001). Analizy podgrup ujawniły znaczący wpływ Taichi i Baduanjin na objawy depresji (p < 0,05), podczas gdy efekty Yijinjing i Qigong okazały się nieskuteczne (p > 0,05). Interwencje ćwiczeń, które trwały od 1 do 12 tygodni, wykazały znaczące efekty (p = 0,0007), podczas gdy te, które trwały od 12 do 48 tygodni, wykazały nieistotne efekty (p > 0,05). Wnioski. CTE może skutecznie leczyć objawy depresji u kobiet w okresie okołomenopauzalnym i pomenopauzalnym. Taichi i Baduanjin są skutecznymi ćwiczeniami, a czas trwania interwencji od 1 do 12 tygodni może być odpowiedni.
