Since the passage of the landmark legislation Title IX in 1972 which acted to prohibit sex discrimination in federally funded programs, the rate of organized female sports participation in high schools has witnessed a growth of over 900%, and intercollegiate sports by 450%. The widespread benefits of of sport participation for women are well researched and include improvements in self-esteem, academic performance, and mental health, with subsequently lowered risk of high-risk behaviors and obesity. However, with this growth in sport involvement a set of documented health problems unique primarily to the female athlete, have emerged. As first described by the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) in 1992, the Female Athlete Triad or Relative Energy Deficiency refers to the interrelationship among energy availability, menstrual function, and bone mineral density. Unfortunately awareness for the triad and its components remain low among medical providers, coaches, and teens. For athletes impacted by the triad, appropriate intervention, especially during the adolescent years, may reduce the risk of osteoporosis with aging. 000009170 542__ $$fIn copyright - single owner 000009170 650__ $$aBody Image$$015701 000009170 650__ $$aFemale Athlete Triad Syndrome$$037579 000009170 650__ $$aAmenorrhea$$014537 000009170 650__ $$aAthletic Performance$$038089 000009170 650__ $$aOsteoporosis$$023359 000009170 6531_ $$arelative energy deficiency in sports 000009170 6531_ $$adissonance-based intervention 000009170 6531_ $$adisordered eating 000009170 691__ $$aSchool of Medicine$$041369 000009170 692__ $$aDivision of Physician Assistant Education$$041465 000009170 7001_ $$aCarlson, Kayla$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000009170 711__ $$aSymposium on Educational Excellence$$uOregon Health and Science University$$d2021 000009170 8564_ $$966159d45-ab82-4b42-b0a2-4804018f393f$$s1123420$$uhttps://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/9170/files/Carlson.Kayla.2020.pdf 000009170 905__ $$a/rest/prod/ms/35/t9/39/ms35t939d 000009170 909CO $$ooai:digitalcollections.ohsu.edu:9170$$pstudent-work 000009170 980__ $$aOHSU Symposium on Educational Excellence (SEE)
