Brief Summary

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

A prospective, open, randomized and controlled clinical intervention study in women over 45 years of age with a diagnosis of vulvovaginal atrophy (dryness and / or dyspareunia, etc.) and vulvar and / or vestibular pain. The efficacy of Prasterone treatment is evaluated in those patients willing to undergo the treatment compared to the control group.

Detailed Description

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

A sample of 50 women over 45 years of age with at least one year of amenorrhea and who require treatment for vulvovaginal atrophy of moderate and / or severe intensity and who present vulvar and vaginal pain within these symptoms will be chosen.

At the beginning of the study, after passing the selection criteria and signing the informed consent, the patients will be randomly assigned to one of the two arms of the study, (active group) or (control group), said assignment will be made randomly. Through a computer program where one or the other arm of treatment will be assigned to the patient at random to guarantee the homogeneity of both study groups and thus avoid selection biases.
