      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Double blinded, Placebo: Used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: Using block randomization method with a block size of 4. Sampling method at this study will be according to random allocation. Participants will enter the study according to inclusion criteria, and then will be divided into two groups according to randomization table. One group will receive Probiotic Capsule and the other will receive placebo. The participants and administrator do not have any information about content of capsules (double blinded study). The list of randomization was computer-generated. supplements and placebo capsules were placed in completely identical packages and were coded by someone who was unaware of the nature of the study in numbered bottles based on the list. And another person who was unaware of the contents of the pack provided them to the patients, Blinding description: All supplements and placebo capsules were identical with respect to appearance and only differed in coding of the capsules. The treatment code of the intervention supplements was blinded for subjects, investigators and staff involved in the conduct of the study.</study_design>
