Active clinical trials for "Dysmenorrhea"

This study aims to determine the effects of kinesiotaping with & without pelvic tilts on pain & menstrual distress in females with dysmenorrhea. This study will be a randomized controlled trial to compare the effectiveness of kinesiotaping with and without pelvic tilts in subjects with primary dysmenorrhea.

Primary dysmenorrhea (PD) is a common gynecological problem among adolescents and adult women. Treatment of PD includes various drugs and therapies such as kinesio taping (KT) and exercise. There are various studies that have individually explored the effects of KT and combined exercises. A randomized controlled trial (RCT) will be conducted to compare the effects of KT combined a combined exercise program and the effects of KT alone on pain and quality of life in females suffering from PD.

There is growing evidence of the effects of dry cupping therapy on pain in primary dysmenorrhea. However, very few studies have explored the effects of dry cupping therapy on the severity of symptoms in primary dysmenorrhea. The study aims to explore the effects of dry cupping therapy and the severity of symptoms in primary dysmenorrhea

The purpose of this study is to compare the Vipon tampon with ibuprofen in relieving pain in women with dysmenorrhea. Subjects completed a total of 4 treatment intervals; each subject was randomized to use the VIPON as their treatment for two intervals and Ibuprofen as their treatment for two intervals.

The purpose of the study is to investigate how effective VA111913 is at preventing menstrual pain in women with primary dysmenorrhoea.

The objectives of this clinical trial are: To further study the safety of Kanion Capsule (GF) in primary dysmenorrhea subjects; To further evaluate the efficacy of GF in treatment of primary dysmenorrhea.

The investigational drug SH T00186D is an oral contraceptive. The investigational drug used in this study contains the estrogen ethinylestradiol (EE) and the progestogen drospirenone (DRSP). The aim of the present study is to evaluate efficacy and safety of the investigational drug in the treatment of menstrual pain (pelvic pain occurring shortly before, at onset, during menstruation). Two different regimens of intake of the same investigational product will be compared. Patients have to undergo 2 -3 Baseline cycles (depending on whether the patient was an OC user before), during which menstrual pain, bleeding events, and pain killer intake have to be documented. During this observation period, the intake of hormonal contraceptives is not allowed. Other contraceptive methods (condoms with spermicide, pessary with spermicide) have to be used. If the patient is eligible for the study, she will be randomly assigned to one of the two treatment groups. Treatment group A will take the medication according to an extended flexible regimen, i.e., tablet intake will be triggered by bleeding events. Treatment group B will take the study medication in the 24 + 4 days regimen. That means, tablets to be taken on cycle days 1 - 24 contain the hormone combination, whereas tablets 25 - 28 do not contain any active ingredients, i.e., these are so called placebo tablets. Treatment will last at least 140 days, but can be prolonged in Treatment Group A depending of occurrence of menstrual bleeding. The overall study duration will be 10 months for each patient. During the whole study period, 5 visits are planned. At Screening and Final examination, a thorough physical examination and a gynecological examination (including breath palpation and cervical smear ) will be performed. Blood samples will be taken for safety laboratory parameters. Additional examinations can be performed any time, if this becomes necessary for medical reasons. Patients will be provided with a patient diary to document the intake of study medication, any bleeding events and days without bleeding, pregnancy test results, any dysmenorrheic (menstrual) pain and its intensity and its interference with daily activity, and intake of pain medication. The pain medication (ibuprofen) will be provided.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a self-therapeutic approach of skin adhesive low-level light therapy (LLLT) in females with primary dysmenorrhea (PD).

Dysmenorrhea (painful menstruation) is a common gynaecological disorder that is prevalent in more than 50% of women during their reproductive years. Primary dysmenorrhea describes cyclic uterine pain without any identifiable or underlying causes. Menstrual pain results as a consequence of endometrial ischemia, high levels of prostaglandins and other inflammatory mediators. Conventional treatment for primary dysmenorrhea consists of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and oral contraceptives, which may have adverse effects. Viburnum opulus (Cramp bark) is a homoeopathic remedy well indicated for the treatment of dysmenorrhea. While there are studies using Viburnum opulus in its herbal form, there is no research assessing its efficacy in the homoeopathic form. The aim of this study is to determine the efficacy of Viburnum opulus 3X in the treatment of primary dysmenorrhea as measured with the modified Short Form McGill pain questionnaire (SF-MPQ-2) and visual analogue scale (VAS) respectively.

The investigators propose that the sustained administration of a vaginal ring would have a better response with respect to pain and a better safety profile than the oral administration of a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug. To assess the relief of the symptoms associated with dysmenorrhea, a specific survey was elaborated that also includes a Visual Analog Scale (VAS) to objectify and measure dysmenorrhea as is the case with McGill's Pain Questionnaire (MPQ).
