This Study Aims to Evaluate Whether Milamend's Product Could Improve Hormone Balance in Women Who Suffer From Self-reported PCOS Symptoms.
Conditions: Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS)
Sex: Female
Ages: 18 Years – 40 Years
Healthy volunteers: No
Phase: NA
Enrollment: 225
Sponsor: Mila Mend Inc.
Location: People Science, Inc. Los Angeles California
Summary
The rationale for this study is to observe the impact of a consumer-grade commercially available product called Milamend Hormone Balance on quality of life and hormonal health in women with self-reported symptoms associated with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS). Additionally, the study aims to observe the impact of the product on menstrual cycle structure and associated symptoms, on reproductive and metabolic markers, on body image concerns, anxiety and general well-being. A consumer-driven, decentralized observational clinical research study is therefore well-suited for examining the effects of this product in this population.
We will examine the outcomes in a broad age-range of premenopausal women who have chosen to try this product. The study will incorporate participant reported outcome questionnaires and surveys and at-home blood specimen collection. There is no "doctor-patient" relationship as part of this research since the participant as a consumer is making the informed choice to try the product and take part in the observational process with self-reported measures, cycle tracking and at-home blood sample collection. Findings from this study will contribute knowledge toward the tolerability and formulation of the product and the design of future studies.
