Results: There was a positive significant relationship between Psychological, Social, and Environmental domains of HRQOL with physical activity ( P < 0.001). In addition, a negative significant relation was found between somatic complaints including sexual problems ( P < 0.017) and vaginal dryness ( P < 0.030) as well as joint-muscular discomfort ( P < 0.018), and the level of physical activity.
