About this study

Investigators have found that sleeping disorder is an important problem in menopausal women.

There have been papers reporting the effect of hormonal therapy on sleeping, but fews have reported the effect of different progestogens on sleeping quality. There is a need for more in-depth study and more conclusive evidence about the progestins which have the most beneficial effects on sleeping disorders in menopausal women.

This study is going to collect the data from newly identified menopausal patients who are eligible for continuous estrogen-progestogen therapy for their climacteric treatment. The affects of the therapy will be monitored for 3 months.

Read the detailed description

New patients who are eligible for hormonal therapy will be selected.

They will be allocated randomly into 2 different groups, each group being prescribed 1 of 2 regimens of hormonal therapy:

  • 17 beta estradiol 1mg/day plus oral micronized progesterone 100mg/day
  • 17 beta estradiol 1mg/day plus dydrogesterone 10mg/day Patients will have their sleeping quality accessed using the Pittsburgh sleep quality index(PSQI) at their 1st visit and once a month for 3 months. The first and third PSQI score will be analysed.
Being tested
1mg 17 beta-estradiol, Dydrogesterone, micronized progesterone
Keywords
Sleeping quality, menopause, climacteric, progestin, dydrogesterone, micronized progesterone
