Filter by:85 percent of women of reproductive age experience consistent period cramps/menstrual pain, and 60% indicate that they do not use painkillers to relieve menstrual symptoms; there is a need for natural and non-medicative supplements to dysmenorrhea. The purpose of this clinical trial is to examine the effect of 'Cramp Bites'--classified by a mixture of natural ingredients researched to help with period pain--on women suffering from primary dysmenorrhea: this will be done through providing participants with the snack and surveying them on how it changes their period symptoms.
Dysmenorrhea, the painful condition experienced by women during menstruation, affects a significant proportion of women worldwide and often leads to decreased productivity. Various pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatments are available for pain relief, but information on their effectiveness, particularly regarding green coconut water, dark chocolate, and Ibuprofen, remains limited. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of green coconut water, dark chocolate bars, and Ibuprofen in reducing the intensity of primary dysmenorrhea. A randomized controlled trial with a quantitative design was conducted, involving 45 participants randomly assigned to receive either 330 ml of green coconut water, 35 grams of 70% dark chocolate, or 400 mg Ibuprofen. Pain intensity was measured before and after treatment.
Women often experience significant pain during their periods which can significantly impact on quality of life. In this study, two products that are used to alleviate period pain will be examined. One test product is botanically based, and the other is a traditional over-the-counter pain reliever with additional components added to support less painful periods. The trial will be a cross-over trial where participants will use the botanical product before, during, and after their first period. Participants will use the botanical product alongside a traditional over-the-counter period product during their second period. Participants will answer surveys and have blood drawn at a third-party lab to answer the main objectives of this trial.
The aim of this study is to compare the effects of aerobic exercise and yoga exercises on menstrual pain parameters (pain severity and duration, analgesic usage), uterine artery blood flow, menstrual stress level, physical fitness, anxiety/depressive symptom level, quality of life and sleep quality in individuals with primary dysmenorrhea. This study is a prospective, parallel group, randomized study. Three days a week for eight weeks, the participants in this study will receive individualized yoga and aerobic exercise. In the literature, there are no studies comparing the effectiveness of aerobic exercise and yoga in the management of PD, which is a public health problem that seriously affects women's lives. Especially when aerobic exercise and yoga exercises are considered, there is no study on how much the features such as uterine artery blood flow and physical fitness sub-parameters have changed with these two commonly used exercise types separately in the management of PD.
This is an open-label observational single-group clinical trial to study the efficacy of a commercially available dietary supplement and its effect on common PMS and menstrual symptoms, as well as health-related biomarkers.
This is an open-label observational single-group clinical trial to study the efficacy of a commercially available dietary supplement and its effect on common PMS and menstrual symptoms. It is hypothesized that the dietary supplement marketed as "Elix Cycle Balance" will improve subjective wellbeing in trial participants by alleviating common symptoms of PMS and menstrual symptoms, such as cramps, bloating, and mood swings. A total of 65 participants will be recruited for the trial following screening, with the expectation that at least 50 participants will complete the trial. The trial will be fully remote, a technology platform will be utilized to screen, enroll and capture study data of the participants. The total intervention study period will be 3 months.
Dietary supplementation is widely used to alleviate various symptoms of PMS and menstruation such as bloating and cramping. Providing a combination of synergistic dietary supplements is hypothesized to significantly reduce self-reported PMS and menstrual discomfort when compared with a baseline without the intervention.
Primary dysmenorrhea (PD) is a pain that occurs in the menstrual period without pathological pelvic disorder. Excessive prostaglandin release causes uterine contraction and leads to uterine hypoxia and ischemia, which results in extreme abdominal cramps and pain. Music therapy is one of the complementary treatment methods in the management of pain for PD which is an intervention that is not expensive and has no side effects. Another complementary treatment method is for PD is chocolate. In the literature; there have a few studies about the effect of the music and dark chocolate on the primary dysmenorrhea but no studies have been conducted to evaluate the effects of the music and dark chocolate on PD. The following is the protocol for a randomized controlled clinical trial, where an experimental group 1 listened to a 30-minute song, an experimental group 2 ate dark chocolate and a control group had no intervention for the same time and conditions. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of dark chocolate and music on PD. This pain measured through a 10 cm Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) in nursing students from the Faculty of Health Sciences at the Manisa Celal Bayar University, Manisa, Turkey. Additionally, State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) was used to assess the trait and state anxiety.
This study was carried out to investigate the relationship between pain, anxiety and fatigue and knee position sense, balance and dual task performance during menstrual cycle in females with Multiple Sclerosis (FwMS). In the neurologic group, especially in MS patients, it is well known that disease activity, course, and symptoms can be influenced by the menstrual cycle. Previous studies have reported that the fluctuations of estrogen and progesterone during the menstrual cycle may have an effect on several neurological functions. Menstrual-related symptomatology has primarily been studied as a physiological phenomenon. Increased neurological symptoms, physical disorders and behavioral changes have been reported just before or at the beginning of menstruation in FwMS. For all these reasons,investigators think that relationship between pain, anxiety and fatigue and knee position sense, balance and dual task performance during menstrual cycle in FwMS.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of additional self-care acupressure in women with menstrual pain compared to usual care alone.
