Randomized clinical trial (RCT) will be conducted to compare the effects of Tanzberger exercises and pelvic floor muscle training on urinary incontinence and quality of life in post_menopausal females suffering from urine incontinence in which data will be collected from Razahat Medical Centre, Lahore via International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire-Urinary Incontinence-Short Form score (ICIQ-UI-SF) and incontinence quality of life (IQOL) Questionnaire. Sample size of 34 patients will be taken. Non_probability convenient sampling will be used. A written consent form will be taken from participants meeting inclusion criteria and will be randomly allocated into two groups through lottery method, to either the PFMs group or Tanzberger exercise group. Treatment will be given three times a week. International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire, Urinary Incontinence-Short Form Questionnaire and Incontinence quality of life will be used to measure quality of life. All participants in both groups will be evaluated before and after the treatment programs. Total duration of study will be six months. Data will be analyzed by using SPSS 21
Menopause is accompanied by a spectrum of symptoms that are frequently related to hormonal changes. Menopause and its symptoms frequently have an impact on postmenopausal women's Quality of Life. There is a need for culturally adapted screening tool to aid healthcare professionals or clinicians to screen the symptoms of menopausal women, so the aim of this study is to translate the Menopause specific quality of life (MENQOL) into Urdu and to find the reliability and validity of the translated version Menopause specific quality of life in menopausal women.
Vasomotor symptoms (VMS) develop in the premenopausal period and symptoms may persist for years after menopause.Vasomotor symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings and sleep disturbances affect women's quality of life. There is a need for alternative treatments to reduce vasomotor symptoms due to the inadequacy of current treatments and the need for an effective treatment. Exercise is seen as a low-risk treatment to reduce vasomotor symptoms. Resistance trainig combined with aerobic training may be effective in reducing vasomotor symptoms and improving quality of life. The effects of the combination of resistance trainig 2 days a week and aerobic trainig 3 days a week on vasomotor symptoms, quality of life, sleep disturbance and depression will be investigated and compared with the control group.
To the best of our knowledge, there is no study in the literature that examined the effects of clinical Pilates training on vasomotor symptoms, quality of life, depression, and sleep problems versus aerobic exercises in menopausal women. This study aimed to investigate the effects of clinical Pilates training and aerobic exercises on menopausal symptoms, depression and quality of life and sleep quality in menopausal women.
Femal, a food supplement based on pollen extracts introduced in Europe in 1999, is a non-estrogenic alternative to hormone replacement therapy in women with vasomotor symptoms. Patients with prior breast cancer, spontaneous or iatrogenic menopause or who are premenopausal with ovarian function suppressed by GNRH analogue and experiencing severe vasomotor symptoms (at least 20 hot flashes per week) will be included. Patients who are on tamoxifen or anti-estrogen or aromatase inhibitor therapy are eligible if started at least 2 months prior to study entry. Patients on SSRI or SNRI antidepressant therapy are excluded. Eligible patients will be randomly assigned to either Femal (2 cp/day) or placebo (2 cp/day) for 3 months (double-blind study).
The increase in the age of the population is a problem that affects both Spain and the rest of the world. Life expectancy increases, and this will influence the quality of life that older people will have. The quality of life is related to the health of the population. Women live longer than men and have diseases such as urinary incontinence that are more frequent in them. This is related to childbirth, increasing age, and menopause due to the hormonal level. Therefore, there are a series of problems related to both physical and mental health associated both with increasing age and with the situation of hormonal change that occurs after the onset of menopause. All of this will influence deficient pelvic musculature, sexual function, sleep quality, and depression/anxiety. Conservative treatment using hypopressive abdominal exercises has been shown to be beneficial at the level of health in female populations with urinary incontinence. The challenge lies in designing exercise programs that, in addition to achieving these benefits, are attractive with acceptance and adherence. The objective of this doctoral thesis is to study the effects of hypopressive abdominal exercises for 12 weeks on quality of life related to urinary incontinence in women, sleep quality, anxiety and depression, and female sexual function in women. Spanish postmenopausal women.
A combination of synergistic dietary supplements is hypothesized to significantly improve self-reported measures of menopausal symptoms when compared with a baseline without the intervention.
A recent systematic review suggested that symptom monitoring can result in reductions in menopausal symptoms and improvements in health-related behaviours. To date, no studies have experimentally investigated whether symptom monitoring could be beneficial as an intervention for menopausal women. One hundred menopausal women were randomised into either a Monitoring-intervention or Control group. A mixed between/ within design was employed, with group membership (i.e., Monitoring-intervention or Control) as the between-subjects component, and time (i.e., baseline and 2-weeks follow-up) as the within-subjects component. Dependent variables included symptom reductions and emotional reactions. Secondary outcomes included help-seeking, communication, medical decision-making, health awareness, self-efficacy, and health anxiety.
The objective of this project is to provide evidence that L-Citrulline (L-CIT) supplementation can improve vascular function at rest and in response to exercise in postmenopausal women.
