Summary
This study looked at whether ospemifene, a non-hormonal drug for vaginal dryness, also changes brain activity in postmenopausal women with sexual interest-arousal disorder. Researchers used brain scans to compare activation patterns before and after treatment. The goal was to understand if the drug's benefits come from improving the vagina or from directly affecting brain circuits involved in sexual response.
