The purpose of the study is to investigate the advantages and disadvantages of bladder filling during hysteroscopy procedure.
This is a study to learn more about a drug called Tranexamic acid (TA), otherwise known as Lysteda, and whether or not this drug can decrease menstrual blood loss in young women and lead to an increase in the quality of life. Menorrhagia in young women with bleeding disorders is typically treated with a combination of treatments including hormonal contraceptives. However, there are barriers to hormonal contraception use in younger adolescents. Tranexamic acid is taken orally during the first 5 days of menstrual bleeding. The purposes of this study include: To test the safety and efficacy of Lysteda in adolescent females. To learn how well Lysteda works in decreasing menstrual blood loss. To see if parents and children participating in this study think the drug is improving their quality of life. Lysteda has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration for use in patients > than 18 years of age but not for younger patients.
The aim of the study is to evaluate if hyaluronic acid gel prevents intrauterine adhesion formation after endometrial thermal ablation.
This is a Phase 2b randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study evaluating the safety and efficacy of elagolix alone and in combination with add-back therapy versus placebo on heavy menstrual bleeding in premenopausal women 18 to 51 years of age with uterine fibroids.
The purpose of the proposed pilot study is to investigate the effectiveness, cost, safety, and long-term impact on quality of life of laparoscopic hysterectomy (LH) in relation to abdominal hysterectomy (AH) for the treatment of benign gynecologic disease in women through a randomized surgical trial.
This study builds on previous research which has provided compelling evidence that deficient activity of glucocorticoids in the endometrium is a cause of increased menstrual bleeding. This study aims to demonstrate that a glucocorticoid (dexamethasone), already in common use for other conditions, (eg to treat medical conditions such as asthma and rheumatoid arthritis in early pregnancy), will reverse the endometrial glucocorticoid deficiency and as a result reduce menstrual blood loss. The study is in two stages, a 12 month workup stage and a 3 year, response adaptive, dose-finding randomised controlled trial. The first stage involves two workup clinical studies to gather preliminary safety and efficacy data from first-in-Heavy Menstrual Bleeding use of oral dexamethasone. They will also provide methodological data for a series of simulation studies to determine a robust adaptive trial design specification. Workup study 1: is unblinded, six patients will be given Dexamethasone (0.75mg twice daily) for 5 days during two consecutive menstrual cycles and will have an endometrial biopsy and MRI on two occasions (in a nontreated cycle, and the second of the cycles treated with Dexamethasone). Workup study 2; is a doubleblind crossover trial of 14 women -2 treatment blocks of two cycles each, with either placebo or Dexamethasone (0.75mg twice daily), randomised to order of treatments blocks - placebo then Dexamethasone, or vice-versa. Adaptive trial: 54 month double-blind, placebo controlled trial of 108 women to evaluate the effect of Dexamethasone across a range of doses with the aim of identifying the optimal dose to be studied in a subsequent Phase III trial. Participants will be randomised to receive one of 6 active doses or placebo over 3 menstrual cycles. All studies will involve asking participants to complete menstrual diaries and to carry out menstrual blood loss collections to objectively measure blood loss. The investigators' proposed approach is novel use of synthetic glucocorticoid to "rescue" luteal phase deficiency of cortisol, and thus improve endometrial vasculature and hence vasoconstriction when menses commences, and thus reduce menstrual bleeding.
The purpose of the post approval study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the Essure System when a NovaSure Endometrial Ablation procedure is performed following a successful Essure Confirmation Test.
Women with measured menstrual bleeding >80ml per cycle and no contraindications to combined oral contraceptive use will be assigned to an oestradiol/nomegestrol acetate oral contraceptive for 3 cycles during which they will collect all menstrual blood and send all used sanitary protection to the laboratory at the University of Sydney for estimation of blood loss by the alkaline haematin method. Hypothesis: An estradiol/nomogestrel acetate (E2/NOMAC) combined pill will be effective in controlling HMB in the majority of women without structural pelvic pathology. Main outcome: The primary efficacy end-point will be the proportion of women with a reduction of menstrual blood loss ≥ 50% from baseline.
The primary objective of this study was to compare the efficacy of Test Product (Levosert) vs. Reference Product (Mirena® Bayer-Schering) based on the mean variation of menstrual blood loss volume in women with menorrhagia. The secondary objectives includes physical and gynaecological examinations, vital signs, clinical laboratory tests including hemoglobin and ferritin measurements, body weight and spontaneously reported adverse events were analysed and compared between Levosert and Mirena® treatment arms. Plasma levels of levonorgestrel (LNG) were also evaluated after various periods of time. The residual amounts of LNG in the devices were finally measured after withdrawal at completion of the study. Plasma levels of LNG and residual amounts of LNG were compared between the two treatment groups. Contraceptive effect of Levosert was estimated by Pearl Index.
