Shatavari Supplement for Hot Flashes and Menopausal Symptoms
This study is looking at whether a daily nutritional supplement called Shatavari Root Extract can help reduce hot flashes and other symptoms of menopause. Researchers want to see if this supplement can lower how often and how severe your hot flashes are, and if it improves other common menopausal symptoms. You might be able to join if you are a woman between 40 and 60 years old, have gone through menopause, and experience bothersome hot flashes. The study will compare the Shatavari Root Extract to a placebo (a capsule with no active ingredients) over 30 days to see if it makes a difference. The main goal is to see if your hot flash score (frequency multiplied by severity) improves after 30 days.
- Study design
- This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study with two groups, involving 44 participants. This means you would be randomly assigned to receive either the Shatavari Root Extract or a placebo, and neither you nor the study staff would know which one you are taking.
- What's involved
- You would take either the supplement or a placebo daily for 30 days. You would also track your hot flashes daily using an online survey and complete a symptom questionnaire at the beginning and end of the study.
- Compensation
- Not stated in the trial record.
- Follow-up
- The primary outcome for hot flashes is measured at 30 days, which is the end of the intervention period.
