Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Peppermint Oil Vapor
Exposure of the perineum to the vapor of the active comparator, 2 ml peppermint oil. The perineum will NOT come into contact with the oil directly.
Peppermint Oil Vapor
2ml of the oil will be placed in the urine collection "hat" that fits into the bowl of the toilet. Participants will then sit on the toilet in normal fashion, exposing their perineum to the vapor of the oil. The perineum will NOT come into contact with the oil directly - only the vapor from the oil will contact the perineum.
Mineral Oil Vapor
Exposure of the perineum to the vapor of the placebo comparator, 2 ml mineral oil. The perineum will NOT come into contact with the oil directly.
Mineral Oil Vapor
2ml of the mineral oil will be placed in the urine collection "hat" that fits into the bowl of the toilet.
