Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Non-hormonal alternatives for the treatment of genitourinary syndrome of menopause (GSM) are needed. In this proposed trial, patients who are diagnosed with GSM will be randomized to receive either a hyaluronic acid (HLA) vaginal insert or vaginal estrogen topical cream for 12 weeks. There will be a baseline visit and an 12 week follow up visit, at which points the patient will undergo a detailed history and physical examination including a pelvic exam, vaginal pH sampling, vaginal cell sample for microscopic analysis, and will fill out a vulvovaginal symptom questionnaire (VSQ). These study arms will be analyzed to assess the efficacy of HLA as compared to the gold standard of vaginal estrogen to treat GSM symptoms.
