NCT ID: NCT05920460 Completed - Depression Clinical Trials

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia and Depression Among Menopausal Women

Start date: June 15, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Considering physical and psychological problems that threaten women during the menopausal period, it seems that therapies that can help women cope with these problems, especially psychological ones, will be useful. The community mental health nurse is usually the first health professional whom women rely on to relieve their menopause symptoms. It is essential for the primary health care nurse to know how to properly approach women at this stage of their life and how to provide them the best and safe treatment. Because only limited interventional studies have been done to manage insomnia and depression among menopausal women in Egypt, the present study focused on reducing and insomnia and depression of menopausal women by using group Cognitive behavioral therapy. The current study aimed to examine the efficiency of group Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for insomnia and depression among menopausal women.

NCT ID: NCT05759936 Completed - Menopausal Syndrome Clinical Trials

4-week Seaweed Supplementation on Menopause Symptoms and Psychological Wellbeing

Start date: March 20, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Menopausal symptoms have a substantial effect on quality of life as well as potentially serving as markers for future health. Previous research has suggested that diet can impact menopausal symptoms. Seaweed is marketed as a treatment to alleviate menopause symptoms, but no research has tested whether it is effective in reducing the symptoms and psychological effects associated with menopause. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of consuming a seaweed supplement over a 4-week time period on menopausal symptoms and psychological well-being.

NCT ID: NCT02480192 Completed - Clinical trials for Menopausal Depression

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Menopausal Symptoms

CBTMENO
Start date: June 1, 2015
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study examined the effectiveness of a new cognitive-behavioural therapy for menopausal symptoms (CBT-Meno). Half of participants were randomly assigned to the 12-week CBT-Meno program and half to a 12-week waitlist. Common menopause symptoms (i.e., hot flashes/night sweats, depression, anxiety, poor sleep, and sexual concerns) were assessed at baseline, 12-weeks post-baseline, and (for women in the CBT-Meno condition) at 3-month follow-up.

NCT ID: NCT01470092 Completed - Clinical trials for Menopausal Depression

Tibolone and Placebo in Adjunct to Antidepressant Medication for Women With Menopausal Depression

Start date: July 2012
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Longitudinal epidemiological studies have shown that many women experience significant physical and psychological changes as they approach menopause and for a long time following. Vasomotor symptoms (such as hot flushes, night sweats), sleep disturbances and changes in libido are common, and impact significantly on the quality of life, social and personal well-being. However, the major reason that many women seek help from menopause clinics or their doctors, is for depression and anxiety symptoms. As such, treatment commonly draws on traditional approaches for the management of major depression including the use of antidepressants such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) or Selective Norepinephrine Reuptake Inhibitors (SNRIs) as the first line response. However, standard treatment of menopausal depression using antidepressants has only shown small improvements at best and at worst, is associated with severe side effects. Some SSRIs have been shown to be less effective in postmenopausal women compared to child bearing age women. Newer therapies directly targeting the disrupted hormonal systems (in particular estrogen) through the administration of such compounds as tibolone, have shown significant potential to treat depression with the added benefit of fewer adverse side effects. With growing evidence supporting the use of tibolone as a viable and improved treatment for menopausal depression, the investigators propose to investigate the potential of tibolone, a selective Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT), to ameliorate de-novo or first onset depression occurring in the menopausal period.
