In menopausal women, this is caused by estrogen and androgen deficiency. The result is vulvovaginal and urogenital changes and a plethora of other changes, including dyspareunia. One of the treatments Dr Goldstein, uses to help combat menopause symptoms is SERMs (Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators). Ospemifene is an oral SERM for Dyspareunia of Menopause. It was originally developed for osteoporosis and has estrogenic effects on bone, lipids, and vaginal tissue while remaining antiestrogenic or neutral in the breast and endometrium respectively.
