Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause in Breast Cancer

This randomized, single-blind clinical trial will compare the effectiveness of multimodal pelvic floor physiotherapy (PPT) and fractional CO2 vaginal laser therapy in reducing genitourinary syndrome of menopause (GSM) symptoms among breast cancer (BC) survivors. GSM, induced by cancer treatments, is common in BC survivors due to hormonal deprivation, and effective non-hormonal treatments are needed. The study will enroll 210 women diagnosed with GSM following BC treatment, who will be randomly assigned to either three sessions of CO2 vaginal laser therapy or eight sessions of multimodal PPT, which includes pelvic floor muscle training, vaginal non-ablative radiofrequency, education, and moisturizers. Primary outcomes will include perineal pain, sexual function, and health-related quality of life (HRQoL), with assessments at baseline, post-intervention, and at 3, 6, and 12 months. The hypothesis is that multimodal PPT will lead to greater improvements in pelvic pain, muscle function, and sexual health, with sustained benefits over time. This trial aims to provide evidence for non-invasive, non-hormonal treatments to manage GSM in BC survivors, filling a significant therapeutic gap.
