The State of Health of Female Students of a Special Medical Group: Factors of Deterioration and Educational Ways to Improve

The article talks about the state of health of girls who receive higher education and engage in physical education in special medical groups according to medical instructions. The authors prove that the health of young people is an urgent problem and a subject of primary importance because it determines the future of the country, the gene pool of the nation, the scientific and economic potential of society. The article has a theoretical character, but for factual confirmation of its relevance in the Ukrainian region, we assessed the physical health of female students on the main indicators of the circulatory system, respiration and functional ability of the autonomic nervous system by conventional methods. The article makes general suggestions for preserving and strengthening the students' health, forming the value of health by reforming or choosing the educational technologies, which are adequate to the modern challenges of society and the needs of the students. The novelty and international significance of the article lies in the fact that for the first time such multifaceted factors of living health have been analyzed. It will contribute to a broader understanding of female students' physical health and issues, from demotivation and gender stereotypes, to the prospects of being healthy through physical education influences.
