Filter by:Objective: This study was conducted to determine the effects of Reiki applied to women in the postmenopausal period on menopausal symptoms and depression levels. Methodology:This randomized controlled study was conducted with postmenopausal women registered in a family health center in eastern Türkiye. The sample of the study consisted of 82 women, 41 in the Reiki group and 41 in the control group. While four sessions of Reiki were applied to the women in the Reiki group, once a week for 4 weeks, no intervention was applied to the control group. Menopause Rating Scale (MRS) and Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) were used to collect data.
This is a two-part study designed to evaluate the effect of Estetrol (E4) 15 or 20 mg, or placebo on the severity and frequency of vasomotor symptoms (VMS) (Efficacy Study Part) and the safety of E4 20 mg (Safety Study Part).
The purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness of an herbal combination product called Nu Femme, on menopausal symptoms in peri-menopausal women.
RATIONALE: Estrogen can relieve the symptoms of menopause, but can also cause the growth of breast cancer cells. Flaxseed may reduce the number of hot flashes and improve mood and quality of life in postmenopausal women not receiving estrogen therapy. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying flaxseed to see how well it works in treating postmenopausal women with hot flashes who have a history of breast cancer or other cancer or who do not wish to take estrogen therapy.
Menopausal women often complain of difficulty sleeping and the transition from pre- to postmenopausal status is associated with an incresase in self-reported sleep disturbance. Hot flashes have been associated with self-reported measures of sleep disturbance and changes in sleep pattern as measured by plysomnography, including an increase in stage 4 and a latency or shortened time in rapid-eye movement sleep. Although there are some data on the effect of hormone replacement therapy on self-reported sleep measures in symptomatic postmenopausal women, there are no data on the effect of herbal extracts on subjective or objective measures of sleep quality in this population group. Actigraphy, the use of a device to record movement generally placed on the wrist, has been used over 20 years to provide objective data concerning sleep/wake patterns. The advantage of actigraphy over traditional polysomnography is that actigraphy can conveniently record continuously for 24-hours a day for longer periods of time.
RATIONALE: Goserelin may help prevent early menopause in patients undergoing chemotherapy for breast cancer. It is not yet known whether goserelin is effective in preventing early menopause in women undergoing chemotherapy for breast cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying goserelin to see how well it works compared with no goserelin in preventing early menopause in premenopausal women undergoing chemotherapy for stage I, stage II, or stage III breast cancer.
The objective of the active surveillance study is to compare incidence rates of serious adverse events in users of all types of newly prescribed oral continuous combined HRT products. The primary focus is the assessment of pertinent cardiovascular outcomes (such as venous and arterial thromboembolism) in new HRT users for up to 8.5 years.
Hot flashes occur in three quarters of menopausal women, and can negatively impact quality of life. Interest has arisen in isoflavones, found in rich supply in soy products, as therapy for hot flashes. The study examines the effect of a new soy supplement, as compared to a placebo, in menopausal women on hot flash symptoms.
RATIONALE: Goserelin blocks hormone production in the ovaries. It is not yet known whether ovarian suppression using goserelin will prevent ovarian failure (early menopause) in women receiving chemotherapy for breast cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying how well giving goserelin together with chemotherapy works compared with chemotherapy alone in preventing early menopause in women with stage I, stage II, or stage IIIA breast cancer.
RATIONALE: Raloxifene and exercise may improve bone health and quality of life in breast cancer survivors. Assessing bone health and quality of life may improve the ability to plan treatment. PURPOSE: Randomized clinical trial to study the effectiveness of raloxifene with or without exercise compared with exercise alone in women who have been previously treated for breast cancer.
