Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This clinical trial, a double blind randomized controlled trial, is conducted to determine the effects of daily topical visnadin, ethyl ximeninate, coleus barbatus and millet in emulgel on sexual function in postmenopausal women with vulvovaginal atrophy within 8-week of treatment. We compare the active ingredient in emulgel to the emulgel only. We also evaluate the improvement of the vulvovaginal atrophy symptoms in postmenopausal women, the safety and the tolerability of visnadin, ethyl ximeninate, coleus barbatus and millet in emulgel. This study is conducted in the Menopause Clinic and the Gynecology Clinic, King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital, Bangkok, Thailand.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Topical visnadin, ethyl ximeninate, coleus barbatus and millet in emulgel is a cosmetic product. Visnadin is an active ingredient which has the vasodilator effect and improve blood flow to female vulvovaginal area. This will improve lubrication from increase Bartholin's gland secretion. As the clitoral blood flow increase, the sexual response could be improved. The ethyl ximeninate, coleus barbatus and millet are plant extract which have moisturizer, anti-inflammation and antioxidant effects. Our hypothesis is a daily topical visnadin, ethyl ximeninate, coleus barbatus and millet in emulgel could improved sexual function and vulvovaginal atrophic symptoms in postmenopausal women with vulvovaginal atrophy.

Pharmacist will provide the same color and texture of product and identical package for both active emulgel and emulgel only products. She is the only person who knows the code of product and prepare the product in the opaque envelop for all participants.

The statistician will generate the code of product to all participants with block-of-four randomization method.

The nurse will distribute and help the participants fill all questionnaires.
