Revitalizing Women's Health: Estriol Cream Shows Promising Results in Alleviating Post-Menopausal Urinary Incontinence, Finds Multinational Study

The study aimed to measure the effects of 12 weeks of vaginal estriol cream on stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in postmenopausal women. The participants were given written instructions to apply a standard dose of vaginal estriol cream and outcomes were measured at baseline and 12 weeks. The primary objective outcome was vaginal pH and the primary subjective outcome was the stress domain of the Urogenital Distress Inventory‐6 (UDI‐6). The study found that vaginal estriol cream significantly improved symptoms of SUI in postmenopausal women, as measured by the UDI-6 and vaginal pH. The study suggests that vaginal estriol cream could be an effective treatment option for postmenopausal women with SUI.
