Symptoms of perimenopause and menopause can significantly affect overall quality of life. It is hypothesized that daily supplements can reduce the severity of these symptoms. This 12-week clinical trial will examine the effects of Hologram Sciences' Daily Balance Gummy Supplements on symptoms including hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, anxiety, fatigue, and brain fog. Participants will take the product daily and complete study-specific questionnaires at Baseline, Week 4, Week 8, and Week 12. Upon conclusion of Week 12, participants will be asked to count how many gummies remain in their jar.
Insomnia in perimenopausal women is normal. Studies have shown that insomnia occurs in 75-81% of perimenopausal women and is 2.4 times more common than in premenopausal participants. Western medicine often uses sedative sleeping drugs in the treatment of insomnia in perimenopausal women, which have better effects but have more side effects, and whether they are suitable for long-term application is still controversial. Non-pharmacological traditional therapies in Traditional Chinese Medicine have achieved significant clinical efficacy in the treatment of perimenopausal insomnia patients in recent years. This study aims to explore the efficacy of auricular point seed burying combined with fire dragon pot moxibustion in the treatment of the insomnia symptoms of perimenopausal women.
Given the high rates and associated impairment of sexual concerns during the menopausal transition, and specifically during perimenopause, our team has developed a CBT protocol specifically designed to target these prevalent and distressing sexual concerns. The broad aim of the proposed study is to validate this new protocol in a clinic that provides empirically-supported assessment and intervention services for women with menopause-related symptoms. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of a four-week individual CBT protocol in improving sexual satisfaction and reducing distress during perimenopause. The secondary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of this CBT protocol to improve sexual functioning (e.g., desire, arousal), relationship satisfaction, and body image. Exploratory analyses will examine the impact on this CBT protocol on vasomotor symptoms, depression, and anxiety.
The purpose of this study is to identify the impact of estradiol (E2) on the mechanisms that regulate vascular endothelial function in peri-menopausal (PERI) women. This study is the first step in understanding factors contributing to endothelial dysfunction in women with advancing reproductive age and in response to E2 administration.
HYPOTHESIS: Pregnenolone administration will be associated with greater reduction in depressive symptom severity than placebo in women with current mMDD. STUDY AIMS: Primary Aim: Determine if pregnenolone is associated with greater reduction in depressive symptom severity than placebo in women with mMDD, as measured by MADRS. Secondary Aims: 1. Determine if pregnenolone is associated with greater reduction in anxiety symptom severity than placebo in women with mMDD. 2. Determine if pregnenolone is associated with greater improvement in cognition than placebo in women with mMDD. 3. Determine if pregnenolone is associated with greater improvement in quality of life than placebo in women with mMDD. 4. Determine if pregnenolone is associated with greater improvement in vasomotor symptoms of menopause than placebo. Mechanistic Aims: 1. Determine whether changes in neurosteroid levels with pregnenolone mediate clinical response. 2. Determine if baseline neurosteroid levels predict pregnenolone response. 3. Determine whether depressive symptoms, anxiety, sleep or vasomotor symptoms improve first. A crossed-lagged panel model will explore serial correlations between changes in outcome measures.
This study is designed to evaluate the within-woman effect of oral micronized progesterone (Progesterone 300 mg at bedtime) on semi-quantitative menstrual flow measured by the DivaCup® (menstrual cup with volume indicators at 7.5, 15 and 30 ml) or by counting the number of soaked normal-sized sanitary products such as normal-sized tampons or pads as well as length of flow and frequency and severity of menstrual cramps (on a 0-4 scale) in women with hot flushes and night sweats who are qualified to enroll in the primary perimenopausal hot flush trial stratified by whether they are in Early or Late Perimenopause.
Main objective: to compare the effects of electro-acupuncture and escitalopram oxalate tablets on mild-to-moderate perimenopausal depression, and to evaluate the safety of electroacupuncture stimulation.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether acupuncture is effective for relieving perimenopausal symptoms.
Muscle or joint pain is one of the most common symptoms during menopausal transition. As this could be severe enough to affect social and daily life and to reduce quality of life, attentions should be paid about this. Although understanding of muscle or joint pain related to menopause is still insufficient, estrogen can play an important role. Previous studies have shown that estrogen protects cartilage in both animals and humans. However, perimenopause is different from postmenopause, in the point that estrogen is still secreted with a great fluctuation. Until now, no study has been performed to evaluate the effects of oral contraceptive on muscle or joint pain in women during menopausal transition. Moreover, since menopausal symptoms vary according to ethnicity and culture, a study in Korean population is necessary. Therefore, this randomized controlled trial was designed to evaluate the effects of oral contraceptive on muscle or joint pain in women during menopausal transition, compared to NSAID (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug).
