Measuring Menstrual Iron Loss Using the Iron Isotope Dilution Technique
Iron-deficiencyMenorrhagia1 moreIt is very difficult to quantify menstrual blood loss, the reference method is a tedious one. This is a problem, as it is not conducive to objectively measuring menstrual blood loss and understanding the contribution of menstrual iron loss to iron deficiency anemia. With this study, the investigators aim to investigate iron loss during the menstrual cycle and aim to validate a much simpler technique.
Randomized Clinical Trial Comparing Conventional Laparoscopic and Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Hysterectomy...
MenorrhagiaPelvic Pain1 moreRobotic-assisted surgery is becoming more prominent within the specialty of Gynecologic surgery with little direct evidence that it is if not better than traditional laparoscopic surgery, at least equivalent. We designed a randomized-controlled trial to compare operative times, length of hospital stay, estimated blood loss, and post-operative complications associated with these two methods of minimally invasive hysterectomy.
Study Comparing Conventional vs. Robotic-assisted Laparoscopic Hysterectomy
Uterine FibroidsMenorrhagia1 moreThe purpose of this study is to compare two ways of performing laparoscopic hysterectomy - robotic-assisted vs. conventional laparoscopy.
Treatment of Heavy and/or Prolonged Menstrual Bleeding Without Organic Cause
Improve Quality of LifeHeavy Menstrual BleedingAbnormal uterine bleeding encompasses abnormalities in the regularity, duration of flow, frequency, and/or blood flow volume relative to normal menstruation. Of these menstrual abnormalities, heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB), defined objectively as a blood loss of 80 ml or more per menstrual cycle , which is unrelated to pregnancy or known pelvic or systemic disease.
Trial of Homeopathy on Management of Menorrhagia
MenorrhagiaThe purpose of this study is to compare outcomes and quality-of-life issues in the treatment of menorrhagia, this randomized double blind controlled trial compared homeopathy and placebo. Clinical criteria were confirmed the diagnosis, and subjective assessment of the condition was performed during one pre-treatment and three treatment cycles. outcome measures were bleeding days, intensity. average pads used during menstrual cycle, abdominal & back pain, General health and overall satisfaction.
Effectiveness of Truclear on Patient Quality of Life
Heavy Menstrual BleedingThis study aims to evaluate the quality of life in patients treated for submucosal leiomyomas using the Truclear hysteroscopic morcellator compared to women managed medically. Study population includes women age 18 and older with symptomatic submucosal myomas. Patients will be asked to complete the Uterine Myoma Symptom and Health-related Quality of Life Questionnaire (UFS-QOL) at enrollment and at 1, 3, and 6 months after treatment.
Chances for Success of CavatermTM Surgery as a Function of Uterus Probe Length
MenorrhagiaCavatermTM is a second-generation thermal balloon ablation device in the management of menorrhagia. The purpose of this study is to investigate the success (questionnaire) of CavatermTM dependent on uterus probe length, especially corpus probe length, which is measured during surgery.
HMB- Data Collection Methods
Heavy Menstrual BleedingThis is an observational study to determine the effect of various treatments prescribed by healthcare providers for heavy menstrual bleeding on bleeding related quality of life (as measured by the Menstrual Bleeding Questionnaire) and to compare electronic and paper-based modes of data collection.
Quality of Life Outcomes for Ulipristal Acetate and Tranexamic Acid in the Management of Heavy Menstrual...
Heavy Menstrual BleedingThis study compares two treatments for the management of heavy menstrual bleeding, ulipristal acetate (UPA) and tranexamic acid (TEA), on health-related quality of life. Half of the participants will receive UPA and a placebo, and the other half will receive TEA and a placebo.
