Brief Summary:
The goal of this clinical trial is to:
1. evaluate the efficacy of PRP injection and PRP injection mixed with non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid compared to the control group receiving standard therapy with topical non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid gel in the treatment of cancer therapy-induced or worsened vulvovaginal atrophy.
2. To evaluate the impact of vulvovaginal atrophy treatment on the sexual satisfaction of both partners.
Patients will be divided randomly into 3 groups:
Group 1: 15 female patients will receive vaginal PRP injections. Group 2: 15 female patients will receive vaginal PRP injections combined with non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid.
Group 3: 15 female patients will receive topical non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid gel as a control group.
Detailed Description:
1. The first group will receive two treatment of sub-mucosal PRP injection at the outer 3 cm of the vagina with one month interval in between. (17)
2. The second group will receive two treatment of PRP injection mixed with non-cross linked hyaluronic acid at the outer 3 cm of the vagina with one month interval in between.
9\. 3-The third group will receive one applicator (5gm) three times per week of topical hyaluronic acid gel for vaginal application which will be prepared in the faculty of pharmacy for 2 months.
Clinical assessment Patients will be assessed for symptoms and signs of vulvovaginal atrophy (VVA) at baseline, one month, two months, and, three months after the end of treatment.
1. Vulvovaginal atrophy (VVA) symptoms (dryness, dyspareunia) will be assessed on a subjective 10-point scale.
Also, patient satisfaction with each type of treatment will be assessed with a questionnaire at the end of treatment and they will be asked if they wish to repeat the treatment to maintain effectiveness over time (yes or No).
2. For assessment of VVA signs on physical examination, vaginal health index including assessment of pH, overall elasticity, epithelial mucosa, fluid secretion type, and consistency and moisture will be used as an objective method of evaluation of therapy.
3. Assessment of sexual satisfaction of both male and female partners:
Sexual satisfaction was measured using the Arabic version of the Index of Sexual Satisfaction (ISS) and female sexual function index (FSFI) questionnaire.
