Combined Hormone Therapy, C-reactive Protein(CRP) Levels and Life Quality in Natural Menopause Women

June 25, 2020 updated by: Suleyman Guven, Karadeniz Technical University

The Effect of Low Dose Combined Hormone Therapy (Estradiol And Norethindrone Acetate) on Serum CRP Levels and Life Quality in Natural Menopause Women

This study aims to assess the effect of low dose combined estradiol and norethindrone acetate hormone therapy on serum CRP levels and life quality in natural menopause women. 45 natural menopause women who admitted to Karadeniz Technical University, Faculty of Medicine, Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology for 1 year and diagnosed as menopause and planned to have hormone therapy for menopausal symptoms involved in this study. The serum CRP levels and vasomotor symptoms scores graded according to Blatt-Kupperman Index and life quality scores according to Menopause-Specific Quality of Life Questionnaire (MENQOL) in Turkish were recorded before and after (3 months later) low dose hormone treatment (1 mg Estradiol and 0.5 mg Norethindrone acetate).

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Blood was drawn for basal CRP from all patients
Time Frame: 12 months
The patients who were evaluated for the Blatt-Kupperman index and MENQOL questionnaire were given three months of treatment to the patient, which included 1.03 mg , Estradiol hemihydrate and 0.5 mg Norethindrone acetate

Study Major Dates

Study Start (Actual)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
August 1, 2007

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.

Study Completion (Actual)

Study Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention/treatment to collect final data for the primary outcome measures, secondary outcome measures, and adverse events (that is, the last participant's last visit). The "anticipated" study completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the study completion date.
