Literature Review
• 12 weeks of treatment with ospemifene 60 mg/day
induced statistically significant beneficial changes:
• Parabasal cells decreased by 40.2%
• Superficial cells increased by 12.3%
• Compared with a 0% reduction and a 1.7% increase in the
placebo group; P < 0.0001
• Vaginal pH decreased by -0.94
• Compared with -0.07 in the placebo group; P < 0.0001
• Self-reported MBS severity score of dyspareunia
decreased by -1.5
• Compared with -1.2 in the placebo group; P = 0.0001

Literature Review
• Study Conclusion:
• Ospemifene 60 mg/day vs placebo effectively
• Reduces the physiological signs of VVA and
dyspareunia in postmenopausal women
• Did not induce significant estrogenic effects on
endometrial tissue
• Reduction in nonhormonal lubricant use
• The first oral alternative to vaginal estrogens for the
treatment of dyspareunia associated with VVA

Osphena™ - Ospemifene
Summary
• Osphena is an estrogen agonist/antagonist indicated for the
treatment of moderate to severe dyspareunia, a symptom of
vulvar and vaginal atrophy, due to menopause
• Osphena selectively binds to estrogen receptors, inducing
changes to the vaginal epithelium and decreasing vaginal pH
• There is an increased risk of endometrial cancer in women with a
uterus who uses unopposed estrogens
• The recommended daily dose is 60mg tablet taken orally once
daily with food
• The most common side effects include hot flushes, genital
discharge, and muscle spasms
• Osphena may be used as a monotherapy in those patients that
have had no benefits using other estrogen therapies and continue
to have painful intercourse after menopause
