Filter by:Women often face common cancers like ovarian, uterine, and cervical cancers. Improvements in cancer detection and treatment mean more women survive. However, survivors can encounter challenges like ongoing pain, treatment complications, and fertility issues. Treating these cancers often involves surgeries that might include removing ovaries or using pelvic radiation. This can trigger menopause in younger women, causing problems like vaginal dryness, itching, and urinary issues. Women who've gone through menopause often deal with these symptoms, affecting their daily lives, confidence, and intimate relationships. Though treatments are available, lack of awareness, embarrassment, and not discussing these issues with doctors can make managing them difficult. The main treatment for these symptoms is using vaginal estrogen, but it might not be suitable for some cancer survivors. Non-hormonal options like lubricants and moisturizers are alternatives. This study in Thailand aiming to explore how common these issues are among gynecological cancer survivors, their feelings about it, and how it affects their quality of life.
Vaginitis is a common reproductive infection in women worldwide, particularly in tropical and underdeveloped countries. Traditional antibiotic treatments can disrupt the balance of beneficial bacteria, requiring repeated use, seriously affecting women's health. Therefore, probiotics are microorganisms that are beneficial to human health when consumed in sufficient amounts, playing an important role in maintaining the balance of the body's microflora, especially in the intestines and vagina. Many studies around the world have proven that probiotic strains belonging to the genera Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium, Bacillus, and Saccharomyces can help reduce the incidence and severity of bacterial vaginal infections and yeast infections. However, the effectiveness of oral or tablet probiotics is limited due to a slow onset of action and sensitivity to acidic conditions and temperature. In this study, the investigators proposed that vaginal spray probiotics containing Bacillus strains combined with proven stability in both acidic and thermal environments, may be a safe and effective symptomatic treatment for vaginal infections due to pathogenic bacteria, viruses, fungi, and/or flagellates. This probiotic supportive therapy may offer a promising alternative to traditional antibiotic therapy by (i) inhibiting the growth of pathogenic microorganism; (ii) regulating pro-inflammatory cytokines; and (iii) improving vaginal microbiota. The aim of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of vaginal-spraying Bacillus probiotics in LiveSpo®️ X-SECRET (5 billion CFU/5 mL B. subtilis, B. clausii, and B. coagulans) in preventing and supporting the treatment of vaginal infections. Study Population: The study is being carried out at Hanoi Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital (Hanoi OGH) and Bac Ninh Center for Disease Control and Prevention (Bac Ninh CDC). The sample size is 120 per each location. Description of Study Intervention: In each location, a total of 120 eligible patients are recruited and divided randomly into 2 groups (n = 60/group/location): Control and Experimental groups. Patients in the Control group received routine treatment and 2-3 times/day 0.9% NaCl physiological saline while patients in the experimental group were treated with LiveSpo X-SECRET 2-3 times/day in addition to the same standard of care treatment. While the standard treatment regimen lasts for 7 days, the probiotic treatment is continually maintained for 28 days. Study duration: 8 months.
The goal of this clinical trial is to explore the effect of Lactobacillus johnsonii and white pomegranate extract on female bacterial status, it aims to answer are: - Evaluate Lactobacillus johnsonii TCI250 probiotics or white pomegranate extract in regulating female vaginal bacteria and improving vaginal health. - Evaluate Lactobacillus johnsonii TCI250 probiotics or white pomegranate extract in regulating inflammation. Participants will be randomly assigned to placebo (n = 50), probiotic heat-killed Lactobacillus johnsonii TCI250 group (n = 50) and white pomegranate extract group (n = 50) for 8 weeks. Researchers will compare the vaginal flora and inflammation.
Vulvovaginal skin conditions, namely vaginal atrophy, lichen sclerosus, lichen simplex chronicus and lichen planus affecting the female adult population will be treated with a novel gel dressing to test the short- and long-term safety and efficacy of the device.
HIV remains a global pandemic with 37 million infected. In western Kenya, 16% of women in the general population and 29% of the poorest women have HIV. The HIV and sexually transmitted infection (STI) epidemics overlap with broader reproductive health concerns. Menstrual hygiene management is a big problem in low- and middle-income countries and a lack of menstrual products negatively impacts women's work-life. This comes from cultural taboos, stigma, and discrimination, promoting secrecy around menstruation, high cost of menstrual products, use of traditional materials (e.g. rags, cotton wool, etc.) causing leakage and odor, and lack of water and safe hygiene facilities. Menstrual cups designed for use during sex may help women prevent Bacterial vaginosis (BV) and STIs through hygienic period practices, and may help them avoid bad practices in an attempt to maintain vaginal dryness. The goal of this interventional trial is to test the impact of menstrual cups on vaginal microbiome, BV, and STIs of poor women at high risk for STIs and HIV. We predict to see 25% less BV, our primary outcome, over one year. This trial aims to learn more about the safety of the intervention, and understand what is needed to fully implement the program.
This is a phase 1, Single-Center, Double-Blind, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, dose escalation, clinical trial enrolling 24 healthy participants. The main subject is to investigate the safety and tolerability of the LABTHERA-001 capsule and to explore the acceptability of the capsule.
This clinical study aims to train the algorithm and assess the performance of the Ainos Flora Women's Vaginal Health Tester in identifying vaginal infections.
This is a Single-center, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Phase I Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability and PK Profiles of Single and Multiple Ascending Doses of Antimicrobial Peptide PL-18 Vaginal Suppositories.
This study is designed to compare the efficacy, acceptability, and safety of vaginal estrogen cream and platelet-rich plasma in pt. complaining of atrophic vaginitis.
Previous research has shown that semen deposition in the vagina after intercourse leads to dripping, discomfort, and vaginal odor. This study is evaluating a hygiene device designed to be inserted into the vagina after intercourse to absorb semen deposited into the vaginal canal to determine if there is a reduction in dripping and odor, and to determine the amount of fluids absorbed.
