Summary

This study tested a hormone pill called estetrol in 82 postmenopausal women who have trouble feeling sexually aroused. For 12 weeks, some women took the pill and some took a placebo (fake pill). Researchers tracked changes in arousal, lubrication, and distress to see if the pill works better than placebo.
