best course of treatment. For those who have symptoms related to sexual activities, a lubricant may be sufficient. If both urinary and genital symptoms exist, local, low-dose estrogen therapy can be effective. Those individuals who are survivors of hormone-sensitive cancer may need to be treated more cautiously. Some people can have symptoms that are widespread and may be at risk for osteoporosis. Estrogen and adjuvants may be best. Recent research showed a medication called ospemifene can be an alternative oral treatment if vaginal products or hormone therapy is not suitable for patients surviving gynecological cancer. Ospemifene can increase collagen production to improve vaginal tissue, which will help reduce GSM symptoms. Studies have shown this medication has helped increase vaginal pH, elasticity, and moisture to improve vaginal health as well as sexual and emotional well-being.

Estrogen helps maintain a thick, glycogen-rich vaginal lining, which healthy bacteria use to produce lactic acid to keep the vaginal environment acidic, reducing infection risks. In premenopausal women, the main form of estrogen is called estradiol and fluctuates between 40 and 200 pg/mL, rising to 600 pg/mL during ovulation. Postmenopause, estrogen levels drop significantly tp 5-18 pg/mL, leading to gradual changes in the urogenital area. All tissue types such as connective, epithelial, muscular, blood vessels, and nerves are affected and become thinner and less effective, which increases risk of infections, inflammation, injuries, and sores. Blood flow and sensation can decrease, causing pain during sex and the pH level can rise due to decreased lactic acid production, which can allow harmful bacteria and fungi to grow and cause infections.

requirements for inclusion criteria. One of the trials showed that there was a significant impact in helping alleviate GSM symptoms with using 1 mg vitamin E in the experimental group compared to the placebo group. Another trial showed 5 mg vaginal hyaluronic acid had a greater impact than 1 mg vitamin E. Two of the other trials showed there were no difference between using 0.5 g vaginal estrogen and 100 IU of vaginal vitamin E. Since the authors were only able to use four studies, they encountered some limitations such as using a small number of studies and not having as much evidence. In conclusion, the review article found that vaginal vitamin E can be used to helping with GSM symptom but further studies need to be conducted to confirm its efficacy and safety.

improvement in their sex life. If a person cannot tolerate or use estrogen therapy, topical hyaluronic acid can be used as another option which has been shown to be safe and effective. For mild atrophic vaginitis, hyaluronic acid can be used as a treatment first. However, if it is moderate to severe atrophic vaginitis, estrogen therapy is recommended to be used first. Vitamin E vaginal suppositories were also found to be helpful in relieving symptoms of GSM, but further studies need to be done to evaluate how safe and effective this treatment is for this condition. Other studies have discussed using vaginal oxytocin as a treatment, but there has been no significant effect on GSM in either helping alleviate signs and symptoms or improving the condition.

such as before the first menstural cycle, during reproductive years, and after menopause, the distribution of these cell types changes. VMI is determined using a specific formula and provides a more comprehensive view of the hormonal effects on the vagina over time than a single hormone level measurement. VMI is particularly useful in clinical research for evaluating the impact of hormone therapy and changes in sexual function during menopause. VMI is also a better measure of vaginal atrophy than patient-reported symptoms of vaginal dryness.

However, there is a lot of evidence still needed to determined how effective this therapy is compared to other treatments for GSM such as hormonal, non-hormonal, and topical treatments. In addition, further studies conducted can also help determine which groups of patients would benefit from CO2 laser therapy.
