Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the effect of aerobic exercise (AE) on bladder functions and urinary system symptoms in women diagnosed with Diabetes Mellitus (DM) and suffered from Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS). In the study, 44 individuals (35-55 age) were divided into two groups: Aerobic Exercise (AE) (n=22) and Control Group (n=22) by simple random method. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is aerobic exercise effective on bladder functions in women diagnosed with Diabetes Mellitus and suffered from Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms? * Is aerobic exercise effective on urinary tract symptoms in women diagnosed with Diabetes Mellitus and suffered from Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms? * Is aerobic exercise effective on quality of life in women diagnosed with Diabetes Mellitus and suffered from Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms? Intervention/treatment * Control group individuals will be given a behavioral treatment program. * Submaximal aerobic exercise training will be given to the AE group in addition to the behavioral treatment program.

Detailed description

The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the effect of aerobic exercise (AE) on bladder functions and urinary system symptoms in women diagnosed with Diabetes Mellitus (DM) and suffered from Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS). In the study, 44 individuals (35-55 age) were divided into two groups: Aerobic Exercise (AE) (n=22) and Control Group (n=22) by simple random method. Bladder sensation (first sensation) and compliance from urodynamic evaluations will be taken as reference as the primary outcome measurement in treatment effectiveness. * Control group individuals will be given a behavioral treatment program. * Submaximal aerobic exercise training will be given to the AE group in addition to the behavioral treatment program. AE training was provided three days a week, 45 minutes a day, for 12 weeks. The behavioral treatment protocol was completed with an initial training period of 40 minutes, and subsequent control interviews of 20 minutes at four-week intervals.
