Menopause Clinical Trial
Official title:
Black Cohosh Therapy for Menopause-Related Anxiety
This study will determine the effectiveness of the herb black cohosh for treating
menopause-related anxiety symptoms in women.
Study hypotheses: 1) Black cohosh will have a superior anti-anxiety effect compared to
placebo. 2) Black cohosh will have a comparable safety profile to that of placebo.
During menopause, up to 90% of women will experience symptoms of anxiety, such as
nervousness, irritability, fatigue, muscle aches, depression, and low libido. Concern over
the safety and effectiveness of hormone replacement therapy for relieving these symptoms has
caused many women to seek alternative medical treatments. Data suggest that black cohosh has
a direct effect on the neurotransmitters and receptors involved in anxiety. This study will
determine whether black cohosh can effectively treat anxiety symptoms in menopausal women.
This study will last 12 weeks. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either
black cohosh or placebo daily for the duration of the study. Self-report scales will be used
to assess participants' anxiety symptoms and quality of life at the beginning and end of the
study.
