Vapor treatment for heavy menstrual bleeding
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests a new heat-based vapor treatment that removes the lining of the uterus to reduce or stop heavy menstrual bleeding. It may offer an option for women who have not found relief from hormonal treatments and want a non-hormonal approach.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests an investigational medication called BT-114143 for people with heavy menstrual bleeding (abnormal uterine bleeding). The goal is to see if it is safe and effective in reducing blood loss during periods.
This study compares two treatments for heavy bleeding caused by adenomyosis: a procedure that uses heat to remove the inner lining of the uterus (endometrial ablation) and a procedure that blocks blood flow to the uterus (uterine artery embolization). If you have been diagnosed with adenomyosis and have tried medication without success, this trial may help decide which treatment is best for you.
This study compares two treatments for heavy bleeding caused by enhanced myometrial vascularity (extra blood vessels in the womb muscle). One option is a keyhole surgery to clip blood vessels, and the other is inserting a Mirena coil (a hormonal IUD). Joining may help you find which treatment works best for your condition.
This study looks at an outpatient procedure that removes part of the uterine lining to reduce very heavy menstrual bleeding. It may help you if birth control or medicines haven’t worked (or you can’t take them) and your uterus tests come back normal.
This study compares two ways of stopping bleeding after a miscarriage. You would either get a gel to block the bleeding or get the gel plus a small suction procedure. The goal is to see if just using the gel works as well as the combined method, which could mean a simpler treatment.
This study tests whether a small nerve stimulation device (tAN) worn on the ear can help reduce heavy menstrual bleeding. You will use the device during your periods and track your bleeding with provided products and an app.
