Study Summary

Women are at greater risk for exercise-induced hyponatremia (low blood sodium concentration) and this risk has been attributed to their lower body weight and size, excess water ingestion and longer racing times relative to men. While these factors contribute to the greater incidence of hyponatremia in women, it is likely that their greater levels of estradiol in plasma and/or tissue also play a role in increasing the risk of hyponatremia in women. More importantly, estradiol may also leave women more susceptible to the extreme consequences of hyponatremia (i.e. brain damage, death). Hyponatremia is generally attributed to inappropriately elevated levels of the hormone arginine vasopressin (AVP). AVP is the most important hormone controlling water retention in the kidney. Earlier studies in our laboratory have demonstrated that estradiol lowers the threshold for thirst sensation and AVP release during exercise. The purpose of these studies is to test the hypotheses that in women with a history of hyponatremia, estradiol lowers the thresholds for thirst and AVP release, leading to greater fluid retention, lower blood sodium concentration during endurance exercise in the heat. However, we further hypothesize that progesterone administration along with estradiol administration will attenuate the effect of estradiol on the regulation of thirst and AVP, normalize fluid retention, and serum sodium concentration during endurance exercise in the heat. In women without a history of hyponatremia, we expect that estradiol administration will lower the thresholds for thirst and AVP release, but will not increase fluid retention or reduce blood sodium concentration during endurance exercise in the heat. We hypothesize that progesterone administration along with estradiol administration will attenuate the effect of estradiol on thirst and AVP, but have no effect on fluid retention or serum sodium concentration during endurance exercise in the heat. To test these hypotheses, women
