PMID: 19783561 Abstract Title:  A phase II randomized controlled trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Praneem polyherbal vaginal tablets compared with betadine vaginal pessary in women with symptoms of abnormal vaginal discharge. Abstract:  Abnormal vaginal discharge (AVD) caused by a variety of reproductive tract infections is a widespread syndrome among women in India and in other developing countries. The purpose of this study was to determine whether a polyherbal formulation, Praneem, can be used for the regression of the syndrome. A phase IotaIota randomized controlled study was carried out with Praneem polyherbal tablets and Betadine vaginal pessary in 99 women with AVD. The authors found that 92% of women using Praneem were relieved of their symptoms of AVD as against 81.6% women using Betadine. Significant reduction was also seen with both treatments in lower abdominal pain, vaginal itching, and dysuria. Thus, the study indicates the efficacy of Praneem for the treatment of AVD and provides a rationale for planning a further Phase III study on a larger sample size for definitive conclusions. https://greenmedinfo.com/article/polyherbal-formual-containing-neem-sapindus-and-mentha-citrata-superior-betadi#comments Dysuria Mentha citrata Neem Sapindus Vaginal Discharge: Abnormal Superiority of Natural Substances versus Drugs Human Study Sun, 10 Jan 2010 17:09:03 +0000 greenmedinfo 48899 at https://greenmedinfo.com Echinacea may have therapeutic value in treating idiopathic megabladder in women. https://greenmedinfo.com/article/echinacea-may-have-therapeutic-value-treating-idiopathic-megabladder-women PMID:  Acta Urol Belg. 1990;58(2):43-59. PMID: 2073038 Abstract Title:  [Determination of the activity of extracts of Echinaceae and Sabal in the treatment of idiopathic megabladder in women]. Abstract:  30 patients (25 to 76 years old), suffering from incontinence (18), pollakiuria (6) and dysuria (6) reveal at the urodynamic investigation (urovideo 2100 and neuromatic 2000M) an idiopathic large hypotonic bladder. 20 have been treated by Echinaceae (84 to 112 mg/a day) and sabalae (78 to 104 mg/a day) extracts (URGENIN: 90 to 120 drops/a day) during a mean time of 77 days. 10 have received 90 to 120 drops/a day of a placebo during a mean time of 52 days. The statistical evaluations have been carried on accord the STUDENT test for small numbers corrected by the FISHER factor. After placebo no modification of the symptomatology and no significant difference in the measures have been registered. After Urgenin: the bladder capacity, the residual urine and the compliance are significantly decreased; the detrusor pressure and the peak flow are significantly increased. The uretral pressure, the closure pressure and the uretral instability show a non-significant decrease. The modifications of the profilometers and sphincter EMG are not significant. In two cases bilateral vesico-renal refluxes have disappeared. The results of the study suggest that the neurotransmission is facilitated and that the smooth muscle fiber is activated by URGENIN. They measure the positive activity of Echinaceae and Sabalae extracts in the treatment of female idiopathic large hypotonic bladders. https://greenmedinfo.com/article/echinacea-may-have-therapeutic-value-treating-idiopathic-megabladder-women#comments Bladder Dysfunction Dysuria Echinacea Incontinence Neurogenic Bladder Vesicoureteral reflux Plant Extracts Human Study Wed, 22 Dec 2010 05:28:41 +0000 greenmedinfo 59795 at https://greenmedinfo.com Millions of Unnecessary Pelvic Exams Performed in Teens https://greenmedinfo.com/blog/millions-unnecessary-pelvic-exams-performed-teens <div class="copyright">This article is copyrighted by GreenMedInfo LLC, 2023<br/><strong><a href="/greenmedinfocom-re-post-guidelines">Visit our Re-post guidelines</a></strong></div><p class="rtecenter"><img alt="" src="//cdn.greenmedinfo.com/sites/default/files/ckeditor/blank.justin/images/Millions_of_Unnecessary_Pelvic_Exams_Performed_in_Teens-GreenMedInfo.jpg" style="width: 600px; height: 315px;" /></p> <p><strong style="letter-spacing: 0px;"><span style="font-size:18px;"><em>Millions of unnecessary pelvic exams and Pap tests have been performed in women prior to the U.S. recommended screening age of 21, despite concerns of adverse effects</em></span></strong></p> <p><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">A study published in the </span><em style="letter-spacing: 0px;">Journal of the American Medical Association</em><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"> found that 54.4% of pelvic exams and 71.9% of Pap smears conducted in teen girls in the U.S. are potentially unnecessary and may expose women to preventable harm.</span><strong style="letter-spacing: 0px;"><sup><a href="#_edn1" name="_ednref1" title="">[i]</a></sup></strong></p><p><a href="https://greenmedinfo.com/blog/millions-unnecessary-pelvic-exams-performed-teens" target="_blank">read more</a></p> https://greenmedinfo.com/blog/millions-unnecessary-pelvic-exams-performed-teens#comments Cervical Cancer Dysuria Urinary Tract Infections Health Guide: Corruption in Science Women's Health corruption in science dishonesty women's health Sat, 21 Mar 2020 21:31:25 +0000 GMI Research Group 216897 at https://greenmedinfo.com
