[Treatment of climacteric urogenital disorders with an estriol-containing ointment].
Estriol containing cream for treatment of climacteric urogenital complaints was used. After 4 weeks local treatment with Ovestin cream atrophy of vaginal epithelium and chronic vaginitis stopped or significantly decreased. During the treatment the ratio of superficial and intermedier cells in the vaginal epithelium increased and the vagina showed a decrease of pH. The subjective complaints relating to the estrogen deficiency (vaginal burning and dryness, itching, dyspareunia and urinary dysfunctions) ceased. Side-effects and complications during the treatment were not found. The cream can easily be used and it is well tolerated. Estriol containing cream is suitable for the treatment of chronic vaginitis and cystitis developed on the base of climacteric epithelium atrophy of urogenital system. Its introduction to the local therapy is necessary because the majority of population of women are interested in it.
