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.
Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) is characterized by physical, emotional, and behavioral symptoms in the luteal phase that significantly disrupt women's daily lives, including work and personal activities, and resolve spontaneously within a few days of the onset of menstruation. The premenstrual syndrome causes emotional eating, excessive consumption of certain foods, and increased appetite. These unhealthy eating patterns in eating behavior affect health negatively. Women with PMS have an increased appetite and food cravings. It has been stated that the increase in appetite and food cravings are reduced by laughter therapy. Thus, the laughter therapy method, which has no side effects in PMS and negative eating behaviors, can be used and recommended or applied by health professionals.
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.
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.
This work will assess the prevalence in the general population of the ineffectiveness of the anesthetic Lidocaine compared to males with ADHD and females with ADHD with or without PMS.
Hot flashes are the most common symptom of menopause and affect almost 75% of menopausal women. Clinical evidence indicates potent antagonists of 5-HT2A are more likely to cause hypothermia. Risperidone is a potent 5-HT2A and a dopamine D2 receptor antagonist and is proposed to have effect on reduciton of hot flashes through its dopaminergic and serotonergic antagonism. The primary purpose of this study is to determine if RCN3028 is effective and safe in the treatment of moderate to severe vasomotor symptoms associated. In accordance with the latest FDA guidance study participants will have a minimum of 7 moderate to sever hot flashes per day, or 50 per week at baseline.
The purpose of this pilot study is to determine the efficacy and safety of escitalopram administered premenstrually (day 14 through day 2 of the menstrual cycle) for severe PMS in young women ages 15-19 years.
This study will determine whether uninterrupted treatment with birth control pills over several menstrual cycles prevents severe premenstrual syndrome (PMDD). Previous studies have shown that the hormones estrogen and progesterone regulate mood in women with MRMD. This study will use various treatment regimens with birth control pills and placebo (sugar pill) to clarify the relationships among estrogen and progesterone, the menstrual cycle, and mood. Healthy women between 18 and 45 years of age who menstruate may be eligible for this 15-week study. Candidates are screened with a physical examination, blood and urine tests, an electrocardiogram, and 3 months of symptoms ratings to confirm MRMD. Participants are randomly assigned to one of three treatment groups. Group 1 takes a birth control pill every day and on three occasions takes a placebo capsule. Group 2 takes a birth control pill most but not all days and on three occasions takes a placebo capsule. Group 3 takes a birth control pill every day and on three occasions takes another medication called CDB-2914 that causes menstrual bleeding to occur. Participants come to the NIH clinic every other week for blood tests and measurement of vital signs (blood pressure, pulse, and temperature) and to complete symptoms ratings scales. Subjects who develop breakthrough bleeding (menstruation earlier than expected) will have a transvaginal ultrasound. For this procedure, a probe is inserted into the vagina for about 10 minutes. The probe gives off and receives sound waves that can be used to form a picture of the endometrium (lining of the uterus).
This study will explore the effects of dutasteride on mood and the stress response across the menstrual cycle. Dutasteride blocks production of neurosteroids-hormones that help regulate the stress response systems. These systems may be disturbed in women with menstrually related mood disorders (MRMD). The effects of the drug will be compared in women with and without MRMD to determine how neurosteroids regulate mood and the stress response across the menstrual cycle. Dutasteride is approved by the Food and Drug Administration to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (excess growth of the prostate gland) in men. Menstruating women 30 to 45 years of age with and without MRMD may be eligible for this study. Candidates are screened with a medical and psychiatric history, physical examination, screening for symptoms of depression, and routine blood and urine tests. Participants are required to use barrier contraception (condoms or diaphragm) during the 3-month study and 6-month follow-up. Participants undergo the following tests and procedures: - Dutasteride or placebo treatment: Participants receive 1 month of dutasteride and 2 months of placebo. Neither the participants nor the investigators know when the subject is taking the active medication or the placebo. - Biweekly follow-up visits: Every 2 weeks during the 3-month treatment period, patients come to the NIH Clinical Center to have blood drawn and to complete mood symptoms ratings. - Monthly follow-up visits: Participants return to the Clinical Center once a month for 6 months after the end of the treatment period to monitor hormone levels and pregnancy status.
