Clinical Efficacy Study of Jinfeng Pill in the Treatment of Perimenopausal Syndrome

18. maj 2026 opdateret af: Xiaohu Xu, Tongji Hospital

Perimenopausal syndrome (PMS) is a common condition affecting women during the transition to menopause, often causing hot flashes, sweating, insomnia, anxiety, depression, fatigue, and reduced quality of life. Current hormone replacement therapy can improve symptoms, but long-term use may increase the risk of breast cancer and cardiovascular complications. Therefore, safer and more effective alternative treatments are needed.

Jinfeng Pill is a traditional Chinese medicine patented drug that has been widely used in gynecological disorders. Previous studies suggest that it may help regulate hormone balance, improve ovarian function, and reduce inflammation. Recent research has also shown that intestinal bacteria ("gut microbiota") may influence estrogen metabolism through the "gut microbiota-estrogen axis," which could play an important role in perimenopausal symptoms.

This study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial designed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Jinfeng Pill in women with perimenopausal syndrome. Eligible participants will be randomly assigned to receive either Jinfeng Pill or a placebo for 12 weeks. Researchers will assess changes in menopausal symptoms, mood, sleep, and quality of life using standardized questionnaires and laboratory tests.

In addition, the study will explore how Jinfeng Pill may regulate gut microbiota, β-glucuronidase (β-GUS) activity, short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), inflammatory factors, and estrogen-related indicators. The findings may provide new evidence for the clinical use of traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of perimenopausal syndrome and help clarify its underlying biological mechanisms.

Foranstaltningsbeskrivelse
Tidsramme
The modified Kupperman Index (KI)
Tidsramme: Week -1, Week 0, Week 4, Week 8, Week 12, Week 16
The total score of KI is 63. It includes 13 items related to peri-menopausal syndrome, and the severity score of each item ranges from 0 to 3. There were different basic score in each item: hot flashes and sweating = 4; Paresthesia, sleep disorders, nervousness, sexual complaints, urinary tract infection = 2; the other items = 1. Item score = basic score × severity score. Classification standard of disease condition: mild: symptom score <13; moderate: symptom score 14-26; severe: symptom score >27 points.
Week -1, Week 0, Week 4, Week 8, Week 12, Week 16

Sekundære resultatmål

Resultatmål
Foranstaltningsbeskrivelse
Tidsramme
Hot flash scale (HFs)
Tidsramme: Week -1, Week 0, Week 4, Week 8, Week 12, Week 16
The severity of hot flash was evaluated using visual analog scale (0-10).The higher the value, the more severe the symptoms.
Week -1, Week 0, Week 4, Week 8, Week 12, Week 16
Menopause-specific quality of life scale (MENQOL)
Tidsramme: Week 0, Week 12, Week 16
MENQOL contains 27 questions related to vasomotor symptoms, psychological symptoms, physiological symptoms, and sexual life. A lower MENQOL score indicates PMPS has a less influence on life quality.
