Filter by:This study is to evaluate the efficacy of four supplements designed to help participants get ready for sexual intimacy through improving digestion, weight management, sexual drive and stamina, and physical endurance during workouts and overall mood and quality of life. This study will be conducted as a single group, virtual trial, in which all participants will take all four supplements and complete online questionnaires. Participants will take the indicated supplements for the indicated amounts of time over 12 weeks. Questionnaires will be completed at baseline, and then at indicated times throughout the trial.
The purpose of this study will be to examine the effectiveness of Geranylgeraniol supplementation on sexual health function in males and females following an 8-week dose escalation intervention. The study will be carried out in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel manner. Participants will be stratified into quartiles based on their scores on the Derogatis Interview for Sexual Functioning during screening and prior to baseline testing. Participants from each quartile will be randomly divided by into treatment or placebo conditions. Following randomization, participants will be baseline assessed on their sexual health function using a variety of questionnaires, body composition using a whole body Dual Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry scan, blood chemistry panel, and grip strength using a hand-held dynamometer. Following baseline testing, participants will undergo 8 weeks of supplementation of their respective supplement condition. Participants will be instructed to consume two servings a day (150mg total per day) from weeks 1-4. Subject will return to the study site after 4 weeks to reassess the above-mentioned parameters. Participants will then undergo a dose escalation and be instructed to consume two servings a day (300mg total per day) from week 5-8. Sexual health questionnaires and assessments of body composition, blood chemistry, and grip strength will be conducted following the week 8 to conclude the study.
It is known that with increasing age sexual desire is declining in women. Decreasing levels of androgens are believed to have an influence, but cannot explain the loss of libido completely. A possible explanation might be that the effect of the androgen is depending on the functionality of the androgen receptor. It is known that this functionality is genetically determined by the polymorphism of the androgen receptor gene. In the gene there is a varying number of CAG-repeats: the longer the CAG-Repeat, the lower the functionality of the androgen receptor, the lower the effect of the androgens. In this pilot study, the investigators would like to invite 45 healthy heterosexual middle-aged women to the University Hospital of Bern, where they answer questionnaires about their sexual function and where they give a blood sample to assess the testosterone serum levels and the genetically determined androgen receptor subtype. The investigators believe that lower androgen levels and/or longer CAG-repeats in the androgen receptor gene are related to lower libido scores in healthy middle-aged women.
The aim of the study is to investigate whether women on oral contraceptives (OCs) suffering from acquired OC-associated female sexual dysfunction (FSD) for at least 3 months but no longer than one year will express the same level of sexual distress when taking SH T00658ID compared to Microgynon, the usual OC prescribed for women with OC-associated FSD.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the study drug on the libido (sexual desire) of women who are taking oral contraceptives and who have experienced libido reductions as a side-effect of this contraceptive method The hypothesis is that there is superiority in the change in sexual desire and arousal component scores of the FSFI questionnaire from baseline to cycle 6 of the treatment with the study drug as compared to Placebo.
