Collagen capsules could be a new, Hormone-Free way to ease menopause discomfort

This study tests whether a daily oral supplement containing collagen peptides and other ingredients can improve quality of life for women with genitourinary syndrome of menopause (GSM), which includes vaginal dryness, pain, and urinary incontinence. About 43 menopausal women will take the supplement for 16 weeks and report changes in symptoms and sexual function. The goal is to offer a non-hormonal option for women who cannot or prefer not to use hormone therapy.
