Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (4)
Change From Baseline in Participant's Self-Assessment of Severity of Vaginal Dryness to Week 12/Final Visit
The severity of vaginal dryness was assessed and recorded on a questionnaire by the participants using the following 4 point scale where, 0=None (The symptom is not present), 1=Mild (The symptom is present but may be intermittent; does not interfere with participants activities or lifestyle), 2=Moderate (The symptom is present. Participant is usually aware of the symptom, but activities and lifestyle are only occasionally affected), and 3=Severe (The symptom is present. Participant is usually aware and bothered by the symptom and have modified participant's activities and/or lifestyle due to the symptom. The negative change from Baseline indicates improvement. Week 12/Final Visit is defined as the last available postbaseline assessment up to Week 12.
Baseline (Day 0) to Week 12/Final Visit
Change From Baseline in Vaginal pH to Week 12/Final Visit
Vaginal pH was obtained at final visit of the study. The pH was a numeric value from a scale of 0 to 14 expressing the acidity or alkalinity of the vaginal fluids where 7 was neutral, lower values were more acidic (values of 0-6) and higher values more alkaline (values of 8-14). A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement. Week 12/Final Visit is defined as the last available postbaseline assessment up to Week 12.
Baseline (Day 0) to Week 12/Final Visit
Change From Baseline in Percentage of Vaginal Superficial Cells to Week 12/Final Visit
Vaginal wall smears were collected from each participant. The smears were sent to the central laboratory for analysis to determine the percentage of superficial cells. Week 12/Final Visit is defined as the last available postbaseline assessment up to Week 12.
Baseline (Day 0) to Week 12/Final Visit
Change From Baseline in Percentage of Vaginal Parabasal Cells to Week 12/Final Visit
Vaginal wall smears were collected from each participant. The smears were sent to the central laboratory for analysis to determine the percentage of parabasal cells. Week 12/Final Visit is defined as the last available postbaseline assessment up to Week 12.
Baseline (Day 0) to Week 12/Final Visit
