VR alone or VR plus metformin for C-section scar healing
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study compares two treatments to help improve a C-section scar defect (an issue seen on the uterus scar). Some participants may receive virtual reality (VR) therapy plus metformin, while others receive VR alone, and the researchers will look at symptoms and scar healing.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial compares two treatments for a pregnancy-related problem in the uterus: vaginal repair alone versus vaginal repair plus leuprorelin (a hormone medicine). It aims to improve symptoms like long or heavy bleeding when a C-section scar defect is also linked with adenomyosis.
This Phase 3 study tests whether adding metformin after gastric bypass or sleeve surgery can help you stay free of diabetes for longer. It compares metformin plus standard care versus standard care alone.
This study compares two types of vaginal ultrasound (regular and 3D) with or without a saline infusion (contrast) to look at the healing of your C-section scar. It may help understand if 3D or saline ultrasound gives better images of the scar area.
This study tests if metformin, a drug that helps control blood sugar, can improve the chance of a healthy live birth in women with prediabetes who are doing in vitro fertilization (IVF). It aims to see if treating prediabetes before and during early pregnancy leads to better outcomes.
This trial tests whether the common diabetes drug metformin helps improve the lining of the uterus (endometrium) in women with unexplained infertility, which could improve chances of getting pregnant. It might also help you because it is a simple pill with few side effects.
This study looks at a common problem after C-section: a small pocket (diverticulum) in the uterine scar that can cause long, heavy periods. It tests a surgical repair done through the vagina to fix the defect and hopefully reduce bleeding and improve quality of life.
