NCT00587925
Bone Mineral Density (BMD) as measured by X-ray shows the amount of calcium in the bone. Low BMD may reflect osteoporosis, a condition where there is an increased risk of fracture. Women who have gone through menopause have a higher risk of getting osteoporosis because they lose calcium from their bones much faster than younger women. Women with breast cancer may have an additional risk for getting osteoporosis because of the effects of their treatment with chemotherapy. The purpose of this study is to see what levels of BMD post-menopausal women with breast cancer have, and to see if the level of BMD changes during a women's treatment after her surgery. This trial studies changes in BMD and markers of bone activity in women receiving treatment for early stage breast cancer.
NCT00010712
This study will assess whether treatment with black cohosh is effective in reducing the frequency and intensity of menopausal hot flashes. In addition, this study will determine whether or not black cohosh reduces the frequency of other menopausal symptoms and improves quality of life.
NCT00139685
To evaluate and compare Bone Mineral Density (BMD) in adolescent Depo-Provera Contraceptive Injection (DP150CI) users during depo medroxyprogesterone acetate (DMPA) therapy and following discontinuation of DMPA. Another group electing non-hormonal contraception or abstinence will be recruited as a reference population, across all study sites. The primary variable is BMD, measured by Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA). Secondary variables are: Total Body Composition\& Total Body Calcium (TBC), measured by Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA), and surrogate biologic BMD markers. Safety will be evaluated by adverse event reporting, laboratory evaluations, pregnancies, weight and vital signs.
