Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)FemaleAccepts Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Post-menopausal women with the subjective symptomatology of vulvovaginal atrophy with a sum score (0-16) of the parameters dryness, itching, burning and pain unrelated to sexual intercourse of at least 3 AND a score of at least "2" (moderate) for the parameter dryness at screening and visit 1 (day 1)

    • Thereof at least for 48 included patients: sexual activity with dyspareunia
    • Thereof at least 32 included sexually active patients with at least moderate (score of "2") dyspareunia
  2. Natural cessation of last menstruation more than 12 months before screening OR bilateral oophorectomy with or without hysterectomy more than 3 months before screening

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Change of TSS (Total severity score) for subjective symptoms of atrophy
The severity of each of the subjective symptoms dryness, itching, burning and pain unrelated to sexual intercourse will be assessed according to the following scale: 0=none, 1=mild, 2=moderate, 3=severe, 4=very severe The total severity score will be calculated as the sum score of the subjective symptoms resulting in a minimum score of 0 (best) and a maximal score of 16 (worst).

Secondary Outcome Measures

Change of TSS (Total severity score) for subjective symptoms of atrophy
The severity of each of the subjective symptoms dryness, itching, burning and pain unrelated to sexual intercourse will be assessed according to the following scale: 0=none, 1=mild, 2=moderate, 3=severe, 4=very severe The total severity score will be calculated as the sum score of the subjective symptoms resulting in a minimum score of 0 (best) and a maximal score of 16 (worst).
Change of severity scoring for each of the subjective symptoms (dryness, itching, burning and pain unrelated to sexual intercourse)
The severity of each of the subjective symptoms dryness, itching, burning and pain unrelated to sexual intercourse will be assessed according to the following scale: 0=none, 1=mild, 2=moderate, 3=severe, 4=very severe
Change of each DIVA domain score (A - D) and change of total DIVA score (excluding questions 12 to 15)
The DIVA questionnaire addresses the impact of vaginal symptoms such as vaginal dryness, soreness, irritation and itching on the day-to-day life regarding the patient's activities, relationships, and feelings by any of these symptoms (Huang, 2015; Gabes, 2021).
Change of each DIVA domain score (A - D) and change of total DIVA score in the subgroup of sexually active women with dyspareunia
The DIVA questionnaire addresses the impact of vaginal symptoms such as vaginal dryness, soreness, irritation and itching on the day-to-day life regarding the patient's activities, relationships, and feelings by any of these symptoms (Huang, 2015; Gabes, 2021).
Change of each single parameter and of sum score over objective assessment of VHI
The objective status of the vagina will be assessed by the Investigator according to the Vaginal Health Index (Bachmann, 1995). Each of the five criteria - elasticity, fluid secretion, pH, epithelial mucosa and moisture - will be graded from 1 (worst) to 5 (best) and will then be summed up, so that the minimum score will be 5 (worst) and the maximum score will be 25 (best)
Change of vaginal pH
Patient questionnaire
Change of severity scoring for dyspareunia for the subgroup of sexually active women with dyspareunia
Severity scoring for Dyspareunia will be assessed by the patients according to the following scale: 0=none,1=mild, 2=moderate, 3=severe, 4=very severe
Change of impairment of daily life due to dyspareunia (VAS) for the subgroup of sexually active women with dyspareunia
Impairment of daily life due to dyspareunia will be assessed using a 10 cm visual analogue scale (VAS) ranging from 0 (no impairment) to 10 (very pronounced impairment).
Global judgement of efficacy by the investigator
The global judgement of efficacy will be assessed according to the following scale: 1=very good, 2=good, 3=moderate, 4=poor
Global judgement of efficacy by the patient
The global judgement of efficacy will be assessed according to the following scale: 1=very good,2=good, 3=moderate, 4=poor
Global judgement of tolerability by the investigator
The global judgement of tolerability will be assessed according to the following scale: 1=very good, 2=good, 3=moderate, 4=poor
Global judgement of tolerability by the patient
The global judgement of tolerability will be assessed according to the following scale: 1=very good, 2=good, 3=moderate,4=poor
Participants with premature trial termination due to adverse device effects, adverse events, concomitant medication
