Active clinical trials for "Vaginitis"

This randomized double-blind clinical trial studied the effect of oral omega-3 fatty acid on atrophic vaginitis in postmenopausal breast cancer survivors (N=52). Omega-3 fatty acid may reduce inflammation and improve vaginal symptoms in postmenopausal breast cancer survivors.

In post-menopausal women, the condition atrophic vaginitis results from the loss of oestrogen and is characterised by dyspareunia (pain during intercourse), vaginal dryness, and vaginal irritation. It is often diagnosed alongside recurrent urinary tract infections (rUTIs) and may increase susceptibility to rUTI. Topical vaginal oestrogen can be used to re-condition the vaginal epithelium and also reduces the incidence of rUTIs. However, patients often express concerns about using oestrogen, a hormonal treatment. Studies also report side-effects including vaginal bleeding, discharge, burning and itching that underpin significant (28%) drop-out rates. Hence, alternative non-hormonal, non-antibiotic based therapies that treat the vaginal atrophy, but also reduce the incidence of rUTI are needed. Recurrent UTI in adult women is common. Bacteria from the gut can colonise the vulvar epithelia and then the bladder, causing uncomfortable urinary symptoms (cystitis). The lifetime risk of a UTI is around 40% in adult women which increases in post-menopausal women. Annually, UTI incidence is 3%. Of those affected, 5% will suffer rUTI, rising to 13% in the over 60 population. This equates to over 300,000 of the adult female UK population annually affected by rUTI. The most frequent treatment for rUTIs is low dose antibiotics, but this treatment causes the bacteria carried by such women to become antibiotic resistant, which exacerbates the clinical problem. The prevalence of antimicrobial multi-resistance within post-menopausal women suffering from rUTI is around 25% and was shown to rise to more than 80% following prolonged antibiotics. These data support the use of non-antibiotic treatment strategies that prevent rUTI and the emergence of drug resistant micro-organisms. This study will compare two groups with differing treatment strategies. One group will be primarily treated for atrophic vaginitis with topical vaginal hyaluronate and the other will be primarily treated for their recurrent UTI with intravesical hyaluronate.

Objective：To evaluate the effect and safety of the traditional chinese medicine oil agent on senile atrophic compared as compared to estriol cream in aged woman. Design: A randomized double-blind controlled trial. Setting: The hospital ward. Participants: 200 postmenopausal woman with senile vaginitis (mean age 56). Intervention: The traditional chinese medicine oil and estriol cream were separately intravaginal administrated in treatment group and control group for 3 weeks，follow-up 1 month. Measurement: symptom improving(pain and itch) and onset time, edema-size of vaginal wall, vaginal discharge, and PH changes.

Atrophic vaginitis affects the majority of post-menopausal women. It is characterized by dryness and inflammation of the vagina, with thinning of the vaginal tissues. Atrophic vaginitis is caused by the decreased effect of estrogens post menopause. Traditionally, local estrogens have been used to treat atrophic vaginitis Studies have shown that there are progesterone receptors in vaginal tissues. The use of progesterone to treat atrophic vaginitis has not yet been studied. However, its use has been studied in other populations including as a fertility medication in pregnant women. There is a significant group of women who cannot use, choose not to use, or do not respond to estrogenic therapies. The goal of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of vaginal progesterone in the treatment of urogenital atrophy, compared to placebo. This study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled trial. The ultimate goal is to expand the treatment options for patients with symptoms of vaginal atrophy.

To compare the use of Estrace ® vaginal cream against a placebo vaginal cream in reducing symptomatic vaginal discharge and vaginal erosion in patients who are using the Gellhorn or Ring with support pessaries.

Comparing the new Stainless Steel WaterWorks® douching device to a commercially available douching device using just water for safety and efficacy of odor abatement.

This is a Randomized, Positive -Controlled, Multi-center Trial enrolling 240 subjects with Bacterial Vaginosis who will be randomized at a ratio of 1:1 to receive active Honghe Fujie lotion or Metronidazole Suppositories. The primary objective is to assess the safety and tolerability of Honghe Fujie lotion compared to Metronidazole Suppositories.

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.

B streptococcal infection and the major cause of death before and after the baby is born. B streptococcus infection the way of the newborn, usually infection from the mother in childbirth, if the pregnant women during pregnancy early diagnosis B streptococcus infection, it can be effective in preventing the risk of neonatal infection. Department of Health in China has been since April 15, 2012, the Scholarship holder at all pregnant women in the 35-37 weeks of pregnancy comprehensive B streptococcus screening. Infection B Streptococcus pregnant women in the labor process, the use of prophylactic antibiotics can be effective in reducing neonatal B streptococcus infection, but the possibility of the fetus being infected for the condition of premature birth or early rupture of membranes are still unable to fully hedge. In this study, the 35 to 37 weeks gestation examination confirmed infected B Streptococcus pregnant women, oral lactobacillus capsules B streptococcus infection treatment efficacy and safety assessment of clinical research. To assess whether oral administration of lactic acid bacteria will affect vaginitis incidence.

30 postmenopausal females with senile vaginitis will be enrolled with score of <15 on the Gloria Bachman Vaginal Health Index (VHI) intramucosal injections of PRP will be adminstered and perform clinical evaluations at 0, 1, 3, and 6 months.
