Radio-frequency therapy for vaginal dryness in postmenopausal women and cancer survivors: Seven years of clinical experience
Abstract
Background: Vaginal dryness is a common and often debilitating symptom experienced by postmenopausal women and cancer survivors, especially those undergoing hormone-suppressive treatments. Conventional estrogen-based therapies are effective but frequently contraindicated or declined due to safety concerns. This has created a growing need for effective, non-hormonal alternatives.
Objective: To evaluate the safety, efficacy, and patient satisfaction associated with radiofrequency (RF) therapy as a non-hormonal treatment for vaginal dryness in postmenopausal women and cancer survivors over a seven-year period in a clinical setting.
Methods: From 2018 to 2025, RF therapy was administered to hundreds of women presenting with symptoms of vaginal atrophy and dryness. Treatments were delivered using standard RF protocols tailored to individual patient needs. Outcomes were assessed based on symptom improvement, patient-reported satisfaction, and the incidence of adverse effects.
Results: The vast majority of patients experienced significant relief of symptoms, including improved vaginal lubrication, reduced irritation, and enhanced comfort during sexual activity. High levels of patient satisfaction were reported, with many noting noticeable improvements after just a few sessions. Importantly, no complications or adverse events were recorded across all treated cases. The therapy was well-tolerated, even among cancer survivors with a history of hormone-sensitive malignancies.
Conclusion: RF therapy represents a safe, effective, and well-tolerated non-hormonal treatment option for vaginal dryness in both postmenopausal women and cancer survivors. Our seven-year clinical experience supports its integration into gynecologic care as a viable alternative to hormonal therapies, especially for patients seeking non-pharmacologic solutions. Further research and long-term studies are warranted to standardize protocols and confirm durability of results.
