Menopause Drug's brain impact on sex drive studied

NCT ID NCT04677491

Summary

This study investigated whether ospemifene, a non-hormonal oral medication for postmenopausal vaginal symptoms, improves sexual function by affecting the brain. Researchers used brain scans (fMRI) to compare activity patterns in women with sexual interest-arousal disorders who took either ospemifene or a placebo for three months. The goal was to see if the drug's benefits come from local vaginal effects or from changes in how the brain processes sexual stimuli.
