View clinical trials related to Menstruation Disturbances.
Filter by:Menstruation is a process in which metabolic and hormonal changes occur periodically every month to maintain reproductive functions in women. This cycle, which continues from menarche to menopause, repeats approximately every 28 days and lasts 3-7 days (1). The menstrual cycle is divided into three phases, the follicular phase, the ovulation phase, and the luteal phase, in which the levels of estrogen and progesterone hormones change (2,3). In this cycle, which is regulated by the hormones released from the pituitary, hypothalamus and ovary, changes occur not only in the genital organs, but also in the nervous system, cardiovascular system, respiratory system, musculoskeletal system and metabolic functions (4). Responses to these changes, which cause physiological stress in the organism in women, are perceived in different degrees. The presence of recurrent abnormal bleeding or excessive pain may be a sign of various menstrual disorders (5). Evaluation of menstrual problems that negatively affect women's mood, social and work life is clinically important (6,7). The scale, called Menstrual Distress Questionnaire (MEDI-Q), was developed by Vannuccini et al. (2021), it is a tool that comprehensively evaluates menstrual problems (8). MEDI-Q assesses the effects of menstrual symptoms on quality of life, recreational activities, work and social relationships. It consists of 25 items covering different areas of menstruation-related symptoms such as pain, discomfort, psychological and cognitive changes, and gastrointestinal disturbances. The level of distress caused by each symptom is assessed in the menstrual cycle phases, taking into account not only its impact on functionality and quality of life, but also its frequency. MEDI-Q is a scale with good test-retest reliability and internal consistency (Cronbach's = 0.85) (8,9). The scale provides a total score (MEDI-Q Total Score) and three subscales that assess general menstrual distress. Subscales; the number of distressing symptoms (MS) during menstruation, the mean level of distress related to menstrual symptoms (MSD), and the Menstrual Specificity Index (MESI) (8,9), which measures the proportion of symptoms at which distress exacerbates during the menstrual phase.
The purpose of this study is to compare between sprinters and long marathon in menstrual characteristics and serum estradiol level.
Cervical cancer is one of the most common cancer in women, making it the fourth largest cause of female cancer mortality worldwide. High-risk HPV types (hrHPV) continuous infection is the main cause of the premalignant and malignant lesions of the cervix. The most effective primary prevention of cervical cancer is administration HPV vaccines. There are three prophylactic HPV vaccines including bivalent HPV (2vHPV)， quadrivalent HPV vaccine (4vHPV)，9-valent HPV vaccine (9vHPV) currently. With the widespread of HPV vaccination， the cases related to abnormal menstrual cycle or menstrual irregularities has gradually increased in the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System, also the number of reports and studies were increasing. We designed this study to evaluate the statistical association of HPV vaccine and changes in menstrual cycle or menstrual irregularities、amenorrhea. And detect the signal of premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) and related events of three HPV vaccines, and to provide evidence for the safety of HPV vaccines based on the data mining and signal detection method. The research data was obtained from prospective self- developed questionnaire. Before-after study was applied in this study, investigators collect the menstrual cycle data of subjects by the questionnaire and qualitatively interview were taken. The control group is before vaccination, HPV vaccination is Intervention group.
the goal of this randomize clinical trial is to compare in 60 infertile women with hypothyroidism. selected from national Nutritional institute out clinic. the main question it aims to answer is: • There an effect of acupuncture and low caloric diet on primary hypothyroidism and irregular menstruation in infertile women. all participants were received• thyroxine tablets (levothyroxine) • a low caloric diet regime. researchers compared study group (30 infertile women with hypothyroidism) to see the effect of acupuncture sections on hypothyroidism.
The study aimed to explore the effect of different COVID-19 vaccines on menstrual cycle
Of the 1.8 million females with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) in the US, over half of those who are premenopausal suffer from cyclical menstrual-related IBD symptoms, regardless of how well their disease is controlled. Despite the significant impact that cyclical IBD symptoms, such as abdominal pain, diarrhea, and fatigue have on quality of life, evidence about how to alleviate these symptoms is lacking. In other chronic conditions which are hormonally influenced, such as epilepsy, hormonal contraception may be used to favorably impact disease-related symptoms associated with menses and improve quality of life. In our previous cross-sectional study, 47% of the levonorgestrel intrauterine device users and 19% of combination oral contraceptive users reported improvement in their cyclical IBD symptom. All hormonal methods may plausibly improve symptoms, but prospective, rigorous data evaluating their efficacy for this purpose are lacking. In order to design a future comparative effectiveness trial on the effect of hormonal contraceptive methods on menstrual-related IBD symptoms, we propose this pilot prospective cohort study of 200 females with IBD: 100 naturally cycling and 100 hormonal contraception users. We will gain essential knowledge on IBD-specific influences on contraceptive method selection, willingness to be randomized to methods, the ability of IBD patient reported outcome (PRO) instruments to differentiate between non-menstrual and menstrual-related IBD symptoms, and assess the potential role of inflammatory markers as outcome measures in future trials. We will recruit participants from the University of Utah IBD Center and clinics, other Utah gastroenterology providers, and through social media ads. Total study commitment will be ~12 weeks. Study activities will include daily and weekly text message surveys, as well as blood draws and fecal samples for inflammatory markers in a subset of participants which are commonly used for IBD management. Our aims include: (1) To identify preferences and reasons for contraceptive method selection (or non-use) and willingness to participate in a randomized controlled trial, to inform feasibility of a future trial, (2) To obtain estimates of means and standard deviations for the validated Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis PRO Instruments by menstrual timing in naturally-cycling participants and between bleeding and non-bleeding days in hormonal contraception users, and (3) To assess correlation between inflammatory marker changes (fecal calprotectin & high sensitivity C-reactive protein), menstrual timing or bleeding/non-bleeding days, and IBD PRO responses, in a subset of 30% of Aim 1 participants. This pilot will inform a future trial design to define non-contraceptive benefits of hormonal contraception on cyclical IBD symptoms. This line of inquiry will allow for an adjuvant approach for IBD symptom management that is sex-specific and addresses both concerns for hormonal triggers and the need for highly-effective contraception for those who desire it.
An investigation of the dietary supplement marketed as "Premama Balance" on markers of subjective wellbeing in trial participants such as common symptoms of PMS and menstrual symptoms, as well as its effects on aiding in returning to their perceived regular/normal menstrual cycle.
Women with endometriosis in our country and around the world face various difficulties during their menstrual periods in reproductive age. While some of these difficulties are caused by the environment, some of them are due to the insufficient development of personal consciousness. In our study, we aim to reveal the perspective of individuals and society on the menstrual period. Our primary aim in our study is to understand what kind of problems are experienced in different regions of our country during the menstrual period for women and how they are spent. Secondly, the effect of this period on women's quality of life will be examined.
The progressive improvement of lymphoma treatment has led to an important prolongation of patient survival and life expectancy. Therefore, the principal International scientific societies of oncology, recommend Long-term Survivors of Lymphoma to join fertility programs. Specifically, fertile age patients should be assisted by a multi-disciplinary team including specialists dedicated to fertility preservation in oncology, in order to support the completion of the reproductive project. In general population, the use of Inositol was spready considered an effectives choice to contrast ovarian dysfunction with consequently improvement of reproductive outcomes, so it may represent an adjuvant strategy for this purpose. Therefore, the investigators conducted a pilot study to evaluate the potentialities of this nutritional supplement with the aim to optimize the reproductive function in Long-term Survivors of Lymphoma. Despite the limited number of cases and short observational time, this pilot investigation could represent a potential cornerstone for further insights, discussions, and applications
