Filter by:The purpose of this study is to verify and analyse psychological and physiological effects of olfactory aromatherapy and yogatherapy respiratory exercises, together and separately, on the quality of life, levels of stress, quality of sleep and intensity and frequence of hot flashes in climacteric women.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a soy based dietary supplement (phytoSERM) for hot flashes and age associated memory loss.
This is a pilot study to determine proof in principle that vilazodone, a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor and 5HT1a agonist, reduces the frequency and severity of menopausal hot flashes relative to placebo. A secondary aim is to evaluate improvement in menopause-related quality of life.
This randomized phase III trial studies testosterone to see how well it works compared to placebo in treating postmenopausal patients with arthralgia (joint pain) caused by anastrozole or letrozole. Testosterone may help relieve moderate or severe arthralgia associated with the use of aromatase inhibitors, such as anastrozole or letrozole.
The purpose of this study is to assess the change in quality of life over a 6 month period between gabapentin and venlafaxine in men with prostate cancer treated for hot flashes related to androgen deprivation therapy.
Hot flashes present a considerable problem for many breast cancer patients; these symptoms may be intensified by hormonal therapies, such as aromatase inhibitors or tamoxifen. This study examines the value of solifenacin (a muscarinic acetylcholine receptor antagonist) in reducing hot flashes, compared with clonidine (a medication often used for treating hot flashes).
The objectives of this study are to compare frequency and severity of moderate to severe vasomotor symptoms in postmenopausal women treated with applied relaxation (AR) with an untreated control-group (CG) and to investigate if Health Related Quality of Life improve in the AR-group compared to an untreated CG.To study if salivary cortisol excretion would change within the AR treated group compared with the control group.
Cimicifuga racemosa (black cohosh) rhizome and root extract have been used to treat menopausal symptoms. To date, there are still scarce information about its efficacy in Thai women with menopausal symptoms. The purpose of this study will assess the efficacy of black cohosh extract in management of menopausal symptoms in Thai women.
Hot flashes occur in as many as two thirds of U.S. women during menopause and are severe enough to require treatment in 20%. Although postmenopausal hormone therapy is effective in suppressing hot flashes, it is associated with increased risk for a variety of serious adverse effects. There is an urgent need for alternative treatments that are effective, safe, and easy to use. In this study, the investigators will compare two different types of behavioral relaxation therapies, paced respiration and music therapy, for treatment of menopausal hot flashes. Effects on frequency of hot flashes, other symptom and quality-of-life outcomes associated with hot flashes, and physiologic measures of sympathetic/parasympathetic activity will be examined.
The purpose of this study is to test whether a oral micronized progesterone reduces the Vasomotor Symptom Score comprised of the number and severity of hot flushes and night sweats in perimenopausal women. Oral micronized progesterone is molecularly identical to human progesterone, a steroid hormone. It is sold by prescription for use to prevent endometrial cancer in women taking estrogen in menopause. This research study will test whether progesterone reduces perimenopausal hot flushes and night sweats. It will also test whether progesterone improves sleep disturbances and anxiety.
