Filter by:The study was conducted to determine the effect of acupressure and training, given to women under the guidance of health belief model for coping with premenstrual syndrome, on the premenstrual symptoms and quality of life. This study was conducted to as a randomized controlled trial. The population of the study was composed of all women with PMS registered in FHCs no. 4 and 14 located in the city center. The sample of the study consisted of women including 51 women in training +acupressure group, 55 women in training group and 57 women in control group. The data were collected with Participant Information Form, PMSS and WHOQOL-BREF in the study. Training and acupressure were administered to the acupressure + training group. Only the training for coping with premenstrual syndrome was given to the training group. The data collection forms were reapplied to all groups 12 weeks after the pretest.
This study aims to investigate the effect of an open-label placebo intervention on premenstrual syndrome (PMS) complaints. Women who suffer from moderate to severe PMS will be randomly allocated to three groups: to a treatment as usual group, an open-label placebo group, and an integrative open-label placebo group. Participants of all groups will conclude a prospective PMS screening for one menstrual cycle. Thereafter, participants of both intervention groups will obtain an openly administered placebo intervention for six weeks. Participants of the treatment as usual group will have the chance to obtain the same open-label placebo intervention after study conduct. Diverse measures will be assessed by means of a PMS symptom diary and questionnaires. Furthermore, we assess participants experiences of study participation qualitatively by means of semi-structured interviews.
Each female sets her experience of 47 manifestations on a 6 point scale separately for the premenstrual, menstrual and intermenstrual phases of her latest and worst menstrual cycle. Daily Symptoms Report will be filled at the start and at end of the study (before and after performing swimming exercise) Females in group I will be instructed to engage into 12 classes of 60-minute Zumba® fitness over an 8-week period.
Emotional Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) affects millions of women worldwide. For Emotional PMS, including depression, anxiety, perceived stress and aggression, there are very few options. Recent observational data suggest that nutritional supplementation with oxaloacetate, a human energy metabolite, greatly reduced the symptoms of Emotional PMS. The aim of this study was to confirm these observations on the effects of oxaloacetate on Emotional PMS symptom severity within a controlled clinical trial setting.
The objective of the present study is to better define and evaluate Serelys PMS in terms of the impact on the different premenstrual syndrome (PMS) symptoms , tolerance, satisfaction and overall quality of life of women with known discomforts during the premenstrual period. The data from this study will be compared to data when the two different ingredients are given as monotherapy.
Each female sets her experience of 47 manifestations on a 6 point scale separately for the premenstrual, menstrual and intermenstrual phases of her latest and worst menstrual cycle. Daily Symptoms Report was filled at the start and at end of the study (before and after performing swimming exercise) Females in group I were instructed to engage into swimming exercise 30 minutes daily, 3 times weekly for 3 months. Exercise was ceased on the first 3 days of menstrual cycle then resumed afterwards. The exercise included three stages: warming up, swimming and cooling down.
This study was planned and conducted to investigate effect of adequate calcium intake on Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) symptoms in women with PMS who have inadequate calcium intake.
Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) is related to the changes in the levels of hormones predominately progesterone, oestrogen and prolactin, during the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle. Both physical and psychological symptoms may occur from at least day 14 of the menstruation cycle and cease by day 4 of menstruation. The symptoms may interfere with a female's daily activities and have a negative impact well-being. There are a number of conventional pharmacological drugs which are used in the treatment or alleviation of the symptoms of PMS, however the drugs may have side effects and may negatively interact with other medications. Research has shown that homoeopathy is beneficial in relieving or decreasing the severity of PMS, however finding the individualised homoeopathic remedy can be difficult. Grant Bentley developed a system that helps find the most suitable remedy for each individual case. The Grant Bentley Method (GBM) uses homoeopathic case taking, photographs of the facial features and repertorisation to determine the dominant miasmatic group of the patient. This aids in the selection of specific homoeopathic remedy. There has been no research to show the effect of the GBM on PMS. This study aims to determine the effect of individualised homoeopathic treatment using the GBM, on females with PMS by using case studies and a daily self-grading PMS chart.
Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) is a group of physical, mental and behavioural symptoms that occur cyclically through the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle and resolve within three days of the onset of menstruation. Many women are affected by the physical and psychological symptoms of PMS. The symptoms of PMS can change behaviour and wellbeing of women which has an impact on families, social life and work. Research has shown that women with PMS reported additional days missed at work compared to women that do not suffer with PMS. A study done by Brohi et al. (2011) showed that PMS is a common problem that occurs in 81.25% of women and has an adverse impact on a woman's quality of life. Conventional treatment is limited, not always effective and is associated with many side effects. Research using individualised homeopathic treatment, known as the homeopathic similimum, in PMS has shown to be well tolerated as well as have a positive impact on the symptoms of PMS although further research is warranted in this regard. There have not been any studies done on homeopathic treatment in Indian females in South Africa. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of individualised homeopathic treatment on females of Indian origin who are suffering with symptoms of PMS, using observational studies.
Premenstrual syndrome represents a group of problems affecting most of women in reproductive age. These problems include emotional and physical symptoms. In this study the efficacy of oral contraceptive pills and calcium supplements in relieving these symptoms will be assessed .
