Pearl supplement study to help prevent menopause-related bone loss
Treatments studied
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study tests whether a “mother-of-pearl” nutritional supplement can help prevent osteoporosis after menopause. You may qualify if you’re a post-menopausal woman with lower-than-normal bone density but without past fragility fractures.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a woman aged 50 to 65 who has gone through menopause
- Your bone density scan (T-score) is between -1 and -3
- You have no history of fractures from minor bumps or falls (fragility fractures)
- You do not have missing parathyroid glands
- You do not have kidney stones or certain other bone/kidney health problems
- You are not currently taking treatments that can affect bone (for example steroids, hormone therapy for menopause, anti-estrogen pills), and you don’t have uncontrolled thyroid disease
