Hyaluronic acid injection to treat symptoms of vulvovaginal atrophy and improve sexual function in postmenopausal women: A 52-week long-term follow-up.

Summary: After menopause, many women experience uncomfortable vaginal dryness and pain, which can make sex difficult. A new study looked at a treatment using a single injection of hyaluronic acid—a natural substance that helps keep tissues moist. Researchers followed 115 women for a whole year. They found that the injection greatly reduced pain and dryness within just four weeks. Even better, these benefits lasted for the entire 52 weeks! Women also reported much better sexual function and satisfaction. This means a single shot is a promising treatment that could offer long-lasting relief for women suffering from these uncomfortable symptoms.
