Active clinical trials for "Dyspareunia"

The current study will employ a group CBT treatment program of 10 group sessions and 3 individual couple sessions targeting the thoughts, emotions, behaviors and couple interactions associated with the experience of dyspareunia. Women with superficial dyspareunia and their partners will be randomized to the CBT group program-plus or a waiting list control period at one treatment location in Sweden and two treatment locations in the Netherlands. The waiting-list control period will be comparable to the treatment duration of six months. It is hypothesized that the group program-plus is more effective in improving pain during intercourse in women with superficial dyspareunia compared to women on a waiting-list control period.

Dysperunia is caused by chronic discomfort during sexual intercourse causing pain during vaginal intercourse.Sexual pain causes relationship decreasing quality of life following anxiety and depression.Myofascial techniques with and without Thiele massage will be used via randomised controlled trial following sample size of 38.

This study is a randomized controlled sham applied study. Its aim is to evaluate the efficacy of Er:YAG laser for the treatment of atrophic vaginitis in postmenopausal women. In this study, demonstration of the efficacy of Er:YAG laser for the treatment of atrophic vaginitis in postmenopausal women is intended with Maturation Index (MI), vaginal pH measurement, Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI), Vaginal Health Index (VaHI), Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and ultrasonographic elastography

Vulvovaginal atrophy (VVA) is a condition characterized by vaginal dryness, itching, burning, irritation and dyspareunia. The condition is mainly due to estrogen deficiency and is common during and after menopause. Furthermore, androgens may have an important function in these symptoms. The purpose of the study is to compare vaginal estrogen with vaginal dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA, an androgen precursor) on dyspareunia (primary outcome), a symptom of VVA in postmenopausal women. Secondary outcomes are total symptom score of VVA (vaginal dryness, irritation/itching, maturation index, pH), clinical signs of VVA, sexual function, urogenital symptoms, vaginal histomorphology, sex hormone levels and short-term safety. The hypothesis of the study is that the treatments will have a similar effect on dyspareunia while DHEA, through local androgenic effects (eg growth of muscle tissue and nerve density in the vaginal wall), may be more effective in treating other related symptoms such as sexual dysfunction. 170 postmenopausal women will be randomly assigned to treatment with either vaginal estrogen (Vagifem) or vaginal DHEA (Intrarosa). The women are examined at the start of the study, after 4 weeks of daily application and after another 8 weeks of treatment with twice a week application of the vaginal treatment. The study is expected to provide increased knowledge about the effect of the treatments of VVA in postmenopausal women as well as whether vaginal DHEA has additional positive effects on sexual function compared to vaginal estrogen.

This study evaluates if the application of resistive capacitive monopolar radiofrequency therapy associated with Thiele massage is effective when treating de novo dyspareunia at 4 to 9 months postpartum.

Dyspareunia is defined as pain with penetrative sexual intercourse. Women with endometriosis have a nine-fold increased risk of dyspareunia, when compared to the general female population. A prospective single-blinded randomized controlled trial will be performed evaluating the change in pelvic pain and sexual satisfaction scores from baseline to 6 weeks after treatment with transvaginal photobiomodulation therapy or sham therapy. Treatment will involve 9 planned treatment sessions over 3-4 weeks. 40 women will be included in the study.

Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-designed, multiple-site, bioequivalence study with clinical endpoints.

Study to evaluate the use of a medical device in relieving collision dyspareunia

In this randomized controlled trial, the investigators will assess the difference in mean patient-reported pain scores and sexual function between women with gynecologic or breast cancers experiencing dyspareunia (painful intercourse) who are assigned to vaginal dilator use with vaginal moisturizer (Intervention Group, n = 29) compared to vaginal moisturizer alone (Control Group, n = 29) over 16 weeks.

Dyspareunia is defined as a complaint of persistent or recurring pain or discomfort associated with attempted or complete vaginal penetration e purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of low intensity shockwave treatment for patients with dyspareunia and their ability to tolerate sexual activity, (i.e., penetration of vagina, self or partnered pleasure). Participants will: Be given a preliminary physical therapy examination and evaluation. Be asked to attend weekly low intensity shockwave treatment visits. Be asked to complete 3 Month follow up questionnaires
