Case-Based Perspectives on the Management of Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause.
(PubMed, Clin Pract)
- "Treating GSM improves vaginal, sexual and urinary outcomes and quality of life of women. Clinicians need to proactively screen for GSM and offer evidence-based treatment options. The treatment decisions in breast cancer survivors are nuanced, requiring a shared-decision approach."

A computationally informed framework for lipid-based formulation developability: Integrating predictive models with case studies.
(PubMed, J Pharm Sci)
- "A database of >200 FDA-approved oral drugs (2010-2023) was screened through the computational framework, and four case studies (dapagliflozin, mavacamten, ospemifene, flibanserin) illustrate the framework's ability to classify risk and guide formulation decisions. This integrated approach enables rapid, data-driven formulation decisions, reducing reliance on trial-and-error methods and supporting early-stage development of PWSDs. By coupling computational predictions with targeted experimental validation, the framework offers a practical roadmap for accelerating LBF adoption and improving R&D efficiency."

Menopause after breast cancer
(ISGE 2026)
- "For GSM, non-hormonal lubricants and hyaluronic acid are the first line options, however in non-responders low-doses vaginal estrogens, vaginal prasterone and oral ospemifene can be considered...Bisphosphonate and denosumab are pharmacological options to prevent bone loss and fractures in BCS. Conclusions The toxicities caused by AET, can become disabling and induce the patient to interrupt the therapy prematurely. Focusing on menopausal symptoms and QoL in BCS is an essential part of cancer treatment and their treatment should be individualized."

Treating Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause in Postmenopausal Women with a History of Breast Cancer.
(PubMed, Drugs Aging)
- "A stepwise, symptom-driven treatment model is recommended-beginning with non-hormonal options and advancing to local vaginal therapies or ospemifene when appropriate...Local estrogen is generally safer in tamoxifen users, but caution is warranted with aromatase inhibitors due to potential systemic absorption. In patients with estrogen receptor-negative disease, local hormone use may be considered but requires careful risk-benefit evaluation and shared decision making is essential. Until long-term safety data emerge, management should remain individualized, evidence-based, and multidisciplinary."

Treatment patterns for genitourinary syndrome of menopause: a TriNetX analysis.
(PubMed, Can J Urol)
- "Most women diagnosed with GSM did not receive treatment. Among those treated, topical estrogen was the predominant therapy. Newer therapies were underutilized, though it is unclear whether this is due to provider familiarity, patient preference, or access. Further research is warranted to elucidate the underlying reasons for undertreatment in this population."

- "Hormonal therapies for genitourinary syndrome of menopause, including vaginal estrogens, ospemifene, and vaginal dehydroepiandrosterone, have demonstrated efficacy in relieving symptoms and improving urogenital health...Non-hormonal therapies proven effective for managing vasomotor symptoms and sleep disturbances include cognitive behavioral therapy, clinical hypnosis, gabapentin, fezolinetant, and selective serotonin or serotonin-norepinephrine re-uptake inhibitors. Personalized treatment decisions should be guided by cancer type, recurrence risk, patient preferences, and quality-of-life considerations. It is essential to balance oncologic safety with symptom relief and long-term health outcomes in this growing population of cancer survivors."

- "This review explores alternative nonhormonal treatments, including pharmacological options like selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors, gabapentin, clonidine, and neurokinin receptor antagonists (e.g., fezolinetant), alongside nonpharmacological approaches such as lifestyle modifications, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and acupuncture. GSM management includes therapies such as vaginal estrogens, prasterone, and ospemifene, with tailored approaches necessary for cancer survivors. Emphasis is placed on individualized care, better patient education, and continued research into the safety and efficacy of these therapies to improve the QoL for postmenopausal women."

- "Commonly used SERMs include tamoxifen, raloxifene, ospemifene, lasofoxifene, and bazedoxifene. Lastly, E4 has emerged as a novel estrogen with beneficial effects on VMS, GSM, and bone, and neutral effects on the breast and hemostatic factors. A personalized approach, based on each woman's biological profile, is recommended to guide the choice of MHT."

Beyond hormones: 3PM approach to vaginal microbiota dynamics in postmenopausal women.
(PubMed, EPMA J)
- "The analysis evaluated microbiota-based risk stratification strategies for vaginal dysbiosis and demonstrated the effectiveness of both hormonal interventions (systemic/local estrogen, tibolone, ospemifene) and non-hormonal alternatives (probiotics, energy-based devices, pessary) in normalizing microbiota composition and improving vaginal health. Developing standardized yet personalized protocols to restore a balanced vaginal microbiome could help alleviate menopause-related symptoms. Advancing microbiota-based personalized therapeutic approaches is crucial to enhancing the quality of life for postmenopausal women through targeted and individualized vaginal health management."

Update on Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause: A Scoping Review of a Tailored Treatment-Based Approach.
(PubMed, Life (Basel))
- "First-line treatments typically include lubricants and moisturizers for short-term symptom relief, while unresolved or severe cases may warrant hormonal treatment. Topical hormonal treatments often have fewer side effects than systemic alternatives. Special attention is given to selective estrogen receptor modulators like ospemifene and steroid hormones like dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), which have shown beneficial effects on GSM symptoms. Moreover, innovative therapeutic approaches, such as laser treatment, are discussed in the context of their efficacy and accessibility. The safety of GSM hormonal therapy in women with a history or risk of cancer is also addressed, noting the need for more definitive research in this area. While there is a growing demand for tailored therapy, this scoping review emphasizes the importance of effective communication and counseling to allow women to make informed decisions about their treatment. Overall, this review underscores the need..."

Intravaginal laser therapy is an effective treatment for VVA symptoms in breast cancer survivors, particularly in improving the Vaginal Health Index and reducing dyspareunia. Despite the strengths of the study, variability among studies, lack of RCT-s and data limitations, especially on long-term effects, present challenges."

Treatments for genitourinary syndrome of menopause: a systematic review of hormonal interventions and vaginal moisturizers
(NAMS 2024)
- "Vaginal testosterone, systemic DHEA, vaginal oxytocin, and oral raloxifene or bazedoxifene showed no benefit (low to moderate COE) or had uncertain effects (very low COE). Vaginal estrogen, vaginal DHEA, oral ospemifene, and vaginal moisturizers may improve some GSM symptoms. Little long-term data exists on efficacy, comparative effectiveness, tolerability, and safety of GSM treatments. Future research would be strengthened by standard definitions of symptoms and uniform diagnostic criteria for GSM, a common set of validated outcome measures and reporting standards, comparative effectiveness trials, and long-term follow-up for efficacy, tolerability, and safety."
