The overall incidence of SFs was 10.2%. Physical training prior to recruitment had no significant effect on the incidence of SF during ABT (11.7% vs. 9.6% in those who trained and did not train before recruitment, respectively) (Odds ratio, OR)=1.24, p=0.236). Nearly 42% of the female recruits smoked regularly, and the incidence of SFs among smokers was 10.5% compared with 9.9% among the non-smokers (OR=1.07, p=0.188). The overall incidence of SFs 12 months after recruitment was 1.78%. The use of contraceptive medication did not affect the incidence of SF: 10.0% among prior-trained vs. 6.4% in non-prior trained (p&gt;0.05) recruits. SFs were not correlated to these variables at the end of the ABT program and 16 months after recruitment.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"j_jbcpp-2015-0098_s_996_w2aab2b8b2b1b7b1aab1c15b4Aa\">\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>In the present female cohort, physical activity prior to recruitment had no protective effect against SF during or after ABT.
