Call for participants: Chinese Herbal Medicine for Endometriosis – Clinical trial
Researchers from Western Sydney University and the University of New South Wales, led by Dr Mike Armour, are currently running a clinical trial on the effectiveness of a modification of a traditional Chinese medicine formula (Gynoclear) on the symptoms of endometriosis.
This trial is open to women Australia wide and will involve having two blood tests, one at the start and one at the end of the trial, filling in online pain and symptom diaries, and taking six capsules per day for three months.
This is a placebo-controlled trial so there is a 50% chance you will get a placebo or the active treatment, however all women in the placebo group will receive three months’ supply of Gynoclear at the end of the trial.
