Conclusion
fatigue
In this study, women with advanced-stage OC who recently completed first-line treatment experienced significant increases in lean body mass and muscle density, upper and lower body strength, and physical function after participating in resistance exercise. Clinically important improvements were also observed in fatigue, global health, and QoL, and social, cognitive, and role functioning. Importantly, participants did not experience an increase in pelvic floor symptoms. Although our findings need to be confirmed in larger trials, preliminary results show that targeted resistance exercise in a supervised setting is beneficial and should be recommended for women with advanced-stage OC.
