What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Percent change in vulvovaginal symptom questionnaire (VSQ) score

    The VSQ is a 21-item survey designed to measure vaginal symptoms, emotions, life impact due to vulvovaginal symptoms, and sexual impact of vulvovaginal symptoms. The scores range from 0 - 20 with the higher score meaning greater impact from vulvovaginal symptoms.

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 16

Secondary outcomes

  1. Percent change in vaginal pH

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 16

  2. Change in vaginal maturation index (VMI)

    The number of parabasal cells, intermediate cells, and superficial cells will be counted, and the maturation index will be calculated as the percent basal cells visualized.

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 16

  3. Number of adverse events related to treatment

    Time frame: Week 16
