What is it about?
A physical activity (PA) training program for 9 months in women with a history of AH during pregnancy led to a decrease in waist circumference and body mass index, a decrease in serum leptin levels and an increase in serum adiponectin levels, an increase in PA levels and an improvement in quality of life for account of the general physical and spiritual components.

Why is it important?
There are few studies evaluating the effect of non-drug measures on anthropometric indicators, blood pressure and metabolic parameters in women in the coming months after childbirth, while there is no data on evaluating the effectiveness of physical training programs in the form of walking on cardiometabolic indicators and quality of life in the long-term aspect.
Perspectives
PA programs can be an effective tool to decrease the risk of CVD in women with a history of hypertension during pregnancy. The data we have obtained show the effectiveness of such interventions. It is extremely important to continue such studies in order to better study the optimal interventions to reduce cardiometabolic risk among this population category.
