During menopause, there is a decrease in a hormone estrogen, which leads to aging of the vagina. Vaginal aging includes changes in the type and amount of healthy bacteria in the vagina, inflammation and a breakdown of natural barriers that keep the vagina healthy and protected from infections. Some menopausal women develop a condition called vaginal atrophy, which causes vaginal dryness, irritation, pain with sex, and itching. We are testing whether an estradiol tablet placed inside the vagina will lead to fewer changes in the types of bacteria present in the vagina, improve vaginal atrophy symptoms and ultimately keep the vagina healthier for a longer. This is important for women with HIV as they are living longer, healthier, sexually active lives due to successful treatment with antiretrovirals.
This is a randomized controlled trial to evaluate the use of LASER, Micro Ablative radiofrequency and topic strogen to treat symptoms of vulvovaginal atrophy of post menopause.
In this proposed pilot study, 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene sequencing will be used in the analysis of bacterial communities (microbiomes) in postmenopausal women with vulvovaginal atrophy (VVA) before and after eight weeks of vaginal estrogen use. The investigators plan to characterize the composition and dynamics of the microbiomes of the vagina, bladder, and rectum for quantitative and qualitative changes in the distribution of operational taxonomic units (OTUs) before and after eight weeks of local vaginal estrogen therapy. Although the vagina, bladder, and gut microbiomes have been increasingly independently studied, less is known about the interactions of the bacterial communities among the three environments as well as the dynamic relationship with menopausal status and vaginal estrogen therapy and the investigators seek to elucidate these relationships further.
In post-menopausal women, the condition atrophic vaginitis results from the loss of oestrogen and is characterised by dyspareunia (pain during intercourse), vaginal dryness, and vaginal irritation. It is often diagnosed alongside recurrent urinary tract infections (rUTIs) and may increase susceptibility to rUTI. Topical vaginal oestrogen can be used to re-condition the vaginal epithelium and also reduces the incidence of rUTIs. However, patients often express concerns about using oestrogen, a hormonal treatment. Studies also report side-effects including vaginal bleeding, discharge, burning and itching that underpin significant (28%) drop-out rates. Hence, alternative non-hormonal, non-antibiotic based therapies that treat the vaginal atrophy, but also reduce the incidence of rUTI are needed. Recurrent UTI in adult women is common. Bacteria from the gut can colonise the vulvar epithelia and then the bladder, causing uncomfortable urinary symptoms (cystitis). The lifetime risk of a UTI is around 40% in adult women which increases in post-menopausal women. Annually, UTI incidence is 3%. Of those affected, 5% will suffer rUTI, rising to 13% in the over 60 population. This equates to over 300,000 of the adult female UK population annually affected by rUTI. The most frequent treatment for rUTIs is low dose antibiotics, but this treatment causes the bacteria carried by such women to become antibiotic resistant, which exacerbates the clinical problem. The prevalence of antimicrobial multi-resistance within post-menopausal women suffering from rUTI is around 25% and was shown to rise to more than 80% following prolonged antibiotics. These data support the use of non-antibiotic treatment strategies that prevent rUTI and the emergence of drug resistant micro-organisms. This study will compare two groups with differing treatment strategies. One group will be primarily treated for atrophic vaginitis with topical vaginal hyaluronate and the other will be primarily treated for their recurrent UTI with intravesical hyaluronate.
30 postmenopausal females with senile vaginitis will be enrolled with score of <15 on the Gloria Bachman Vaginal Health Index (VHI) intramucosal injections of PRP will be adminstered and perform clinical evaluations at 0, 1, 3, and 6 months.
The objectives of this study were to evaluate the therapeutic equivalence of the Test formulation, generic Estradiol Vaginal Cream United States Pharmacopoeia (USP), 0.01% (Teva Pharmaceuticals, United States of America) to the marketed product, Estrace® Cream estradiol vaginal cream USP, 0.01% (Warner Chilcott) in participants with atrophic vaginitis; to demonstrate the superiority of the Test and Reference (active) treatments over Placebo (vehicle) cream in participants with atrophic vaginitis; and to compare the safety of Test, Reference, and Placebo treatments in participants with atrophic vaginitis.
To evaluate the difference of three vaginal estrogens creams comparative with placebo on improvement of hormonal cytology, local and systemic climacteric complaints, as well as its endometrial security.
The purpose of this study is to determine the therapeutic equivalence of Alvogen's estradiol vaginal cream to Estrace® cream and superiority of both products to placebo. The protocol describes a randomized, double-blind, multi-dose, placebo-controlled, parallel study of a 7 day treatment.
A randomized controlled trial looking at the effects of vaginal estrogen and a nonhormonal alternative on the vaginal and urinary microbiome in women with genitourinary syndrome of menopause.
