RÉSUMÉ
Background: Objective were to evaluate the efficacy of fractional CO2 laser in treating genito-urinary syndrome (GSM).Methods: We did a prospective observational study on 92 post-menopausal women aged 37-84 years during December 2022-December 2023 in a private clinic of district Kanpur. Fractional CO2 laser (Rosch, vaginal 3600 probe) in three sittings were done for women presenting with GSM at the interval of four weeks as a lunch break therapy. The outcome was studied in terms of visual analogue scale (VAS) having 0 to 10 rating at second, third and sixth months. The statistical analysis was performed using MS excel and GraphPad online statistical calculator.Results: Stress urinary incontinence, early prolapse, urinary incontinence was the commonest presenting complaints among females. Significant improvement was observed in VAS score in each follow up.Conclusions: The vaginal fractional CO2 laser can be used as an effective and safe treatment method in GSM. It is necessary to conduct studies with long-term follow-up.
