Official title
A Pilot Study to Evaluate the Effects of Lifestyle Medicine and Mindfulness-based Group Medical Visits on Stress, Microbiome, and Quality of Life in Women Experiencing Perimenopause and Menopause
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
While perimenopause and menopause are natural biological transitions, women may experience a wide range of physical, emotional, and cognitive symptoms. Although pharmacological options for symptom relief are available, these options may not be acceptable or suitable for all women. Integrative approaches for symptom relief, offered through group medical visits, may complement traditional therapies by increasing access to providers, allowing more time for focused education, and fostering supportive discussions with other women experiencing similar symptoms of perimenopause or menopause. The purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness of eight monthly group medical visits that incorporate individual physical assessments, focused education on the foundational elements of Lifestyle Medicine relative to health and well-being, mindfulness practices, and community-building discussions with women experiencing perimenopause or menopause. Individual outcomes, obtained before the group medical visits begin, at each monthly group medical visit, and four months after the group medical visits are completed, will include measures of participants' perimenopause or menopause symptoms, stress, inflammation, microbiome (good bacteria in the body), height/weight, body mass index (BMI), systolic and diastolic blood pressure, and self-reported perceptions of physical, mental, and social health. Each 120-minute monthly group medical visit, led by a specially trained nurse practitioner and a mindfulness instructor, will include a brief physical assessment, educational discussions related to menopause and lifestyle medicine, experiential mindfulness practices, and the development of individual health and well-being goals.
