Vaginal dilators combined with standard care for menopausal vaginal dryness

This trial is testing whether using vaginal dilators—medical devices that come in gradually larger sizes—along with standard treatments can help relieve menopausal vaginal dryness, irritation, and pain during sex. Some women will receive standard care alone (hormonal therapy, lubricants, and moisturizers), while others will also use the vaginal dilators over 12 weeks. The goal is to see if this treatment approach works better than standard care by itself.

Many women experience vaginal dryness, thinning, and discomfort during and after menopause—and breast cancer survivors often face even worse symptoms. Doctors want to know if adding a simple physical device to current treatments can help more women feel better and improve their quality of life and sexual health.
