Summary

This study tests whether blue LED light therapy can improve symptoms of common vaginal conditions like menopause-related dryness, bacterial vaginosis, and yeast infections. About 150 women aged 18 to 75 will receive the treatment either at home or in a clinic. Researchers will check if symptoms like itching, burning, or pain get better, and measure quality of life and sexual function.
