Abstract in brief

GSM is a common condition caused by decreased estrogen levels after menopause, leading to symptoms like vaginal dryness, itching, and pain during sex, which can persist throughout a woman’s life.
The review found that GSM symptoms vary widely in prevalence (13% to 87%), and while many women use over-the-counter lubricants and moisturizers or low-dose vaginal estrogen treatments, awareness and discussion about the condition are low during medical visits.
Most women with GSM are dissatisfied with their treatments, and the review highlights the importance of increasing education for both patients and healthcare providers about GSM diagnosis and management options.
