A Study to Assess the Effect of My Happy Flo on Alleviating Period Symptoms and Heavy Flows.

November 18, 2024 updated by: My Happy Flo
This clinical study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of My Happy Flo, a dietary supplement, in alleviating period symptoms and heavy menstrual flows. The study involves 40 participants, who will take the supplement daily for three menstrual cycles. Primary outcomes, such as the severity of heavy flows, prolonged periods, cramps, mood, energy levels, cycle regulation, and fatigue, will be measured using validated questionnaires completed after each menstrual cycle. Secondary outcomes, including Vitamin D and Iron levels, will be assessed through blood tests at the beginning and end of the study period.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

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.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Experimental: My Happy Flo Supplement
Participants will take two capsules of My Happy Flo daily, preferably in the morning with 8-10 oz of water and a meal, for three menstrual cycles.
Dietary supplement: My Happy Flo
The intervention aims to alleviate period symptoms including heavy flows, prolonged periods, cramps, mood disturbances, energy levels, cycle regulation, and fatigue. Blood tests for Vitamin D and Iron levels will be conducted at Baseline and after the third menstrual cycle. Participants will complete validated questionnaires assessing period symptoms after each menstrual cycle.

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
Improvement in Period Symptoms
Time Frame: Baseline (Day 0), Cycle 1, Cycle 2, and Cycle 3 - each Cycle is 28 days
Measurement of heavy flows, prolonged periods, cramps, mood disturbances, energy levels, cycle regulation, and fatigue using validated questionnaires.
Baseline (Day 0), Cycle 1, Cycle 2, and Cycle 3 - each Cycle is 28 days

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
