Filter by:Symptoms of anxiety are prevalent during the menopausal transition and early postmenopause. These symptoms are mainly improved by anti-anxiety agents, which are associated with some adverse effects including dizziness, sleepiness, and constipation and not all patients respond to currently available pharmacological treatments, thus novel agents with fewer side effects are needed. Some studies have shown that traditional Chinese medicine can alleviate menopausal symptoms safely and economically, and improve quality of life. Xiangshao granules reportedly have good curative effects on menopausal symptoms and premenstrual syndrome and exhibit good safety. This study aim to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Xiangshao granule in improving anxiety state of women with menopause syndrome.
This is a prospective study of the incidence and risk factors of chronic diseases that are associated with menopause.
The aim of this study was to observe the effect of hormonal treatment (oral or transdermal substitution therapy) on diuresis (salt and water diuresis) and lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in postmenopausal women
Menopause is the time of life when menstrual cycles cease. Women typically spend 30-40% of their lives in menopause. Individual experiences of menopause vary and although some women do not experience any significant symptoms, common symptoms include vasomotor dysfunction, vaginal dryness, mood changes, sleep disturbances, urinary incontinence, cognitive changes, somatic complaints and sexual dysfunction. Reduced quality of life can occur as a result of these symptoms. A mobile app has been developed to reduce the impact of these symptoms using a variety of behavioral change techniques including education, goal setting, motivational enhancement, social support and cognitive behavioral approaches. Participants will complete self report assessments of women's symptoms and QOL at baseline, 3 weeks and 6 weeks of app use.
We use Hot Flash Diaries to record the change of daily hot flush symptoms, The Hot Flash Related Daily Interference Scale to record how much did hot flush effect daily life, the Kupperman menopausal index to evaluate the severity of menopausal symptoms, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index to evaluate sleep disorder, wireless temperature monitor to record hot flush and body temperature during sleeping, and classify patients' traditional Chinese constitution by using Physical classification and judgment self-test table. With these evaluations, we can take apart of different syndromes with different symptom of menopause, thus to confirm the specificity and the severity of menopausal hot flush, and give patients correct treatment.
This study will provide daily urine samples from women during early and late stage peri-menopause as well as post-menopause over the course of three calendar months in order to maintain the SPD sample bank. Urine samples will be received in the clinical laboratory and aliquoted into 2.25ml amounts and stored at -80˚C until required. Symptom information will also be recorded to determine whether there are any noticeable physiological changes that can be related to stage of the menopause.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a short supplementation (7days) with BASIS™ increases the natural production of estradiol, measured in urinary waste. The overall objective is to determine whether through increased estradiol levels, the undesirable menopausal effects, assessed via questionnaires, are mitigated by a short-term supplementation with BASIS™
Introduction: The average age of menopause in the Polish population is around 50 years. After the occurrence of the last menstruation in the woman's body there are series of hormonal changes that may result in the emergence of new diseases, i.e. osteoporosis or ischemic heart disease. Hypertension is the most important cardiovascular risk factor affecting morbidity and mortality due to cardiovascular disease. It is estimated that there are as many as 34% of adult Poles. The incidence of hypertension increases with age in both women and men, and significantly greater increases are observed in perimenopausal women. An equally important and growing health and economic problem in Poland is heart failure. It is estimated that up to 700,000 patients in our country are struggling with this disease, and the proportion of women in this group is constantly growing. This is the third reason for the death of women in Poland, causing more deaths than cancer. The influence of menopause on the occurrence of heart failure in a group of women with controlled hypertension remains unclear and is the subject of ongoing research. Similarly, there is still no convincing data on the increased risk of organ complications of arterial hypertension in the group of postmenopausal women. The aim of the study is to assess the effect of menopause on myocardial function indexes, haemodynamic parameters and body mass composition in women aged> 40 years. Material: about 100 women hospitalized in the Department of Cardiology and Congenital Heart Diseases of Adults > 40 years of age will be enrolled in the study. with controlled hypertension. The population will be divided into two groups: I: 50 women before the onset of menopause and II group: 50 women ≥ 1 year after the onset of menopause. Methods: Basic laboratory tests and concentrations of ADMA, NT-proBNP, neprilysin, estradiol and FSH will be performed in patients. The other planned examinations are: full clinical examination with BMI assessment, resting ECG test, full echocardiography using tissue doppler, volume and function of the left atrium and vascular stiffness index assessed using the sphygmocor device. In addition, it is planned to analyze the composition of body mass using electrical bioimpedance, intima-media complex measurement and spiroergometric study. One year after the inclusion in the study, a telephone interview will be carried out with the patients, with particular attention to the diagnosed diseases / onset of intervention: heart failure, diabetes, atrial fibrillation, the need for coronary angiography or rehospitalisation. The collected data will be statistically processed. New values: Studies carried out as part of this work will supplement the current knowledge on the impact of menopause in the population of women with hypertension on the risk of heart failure and complications of organ hypertension. Thanks to the observed relationships, it will be possible to early start the appropriate diagnostic procedure, the selection of personalized treatment and the development of a model of cardiac care for women in the perimenopausal period, and thus improve quality and extend their life.
This study will recruit women with vasomotor symptoms of menopause and a prior cancer diagnosis, for whom conventional menopausal hormone therapy (MHT) is contraindicated for any reason. This study will examine if the addition of psycho-social support and digital cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for insomnia to standard non-hormonal pharmacotherapy can improve quality of life for these women.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety of on the onset of menopause.
