Article Synopsis
- CO 2 laser therapy shows potential benefits for treating genitourinary syndrome of menopause (GSM), particularly in reducing symptoms and improving patient satisfaction compared to a sham treatment.
- The meta-analysis included six randomized clinical trials and found that CO 2 laser treatment significantly lowered scores on the Vaginal Assessment Scale and Urinary Distress Inventory short form.
- While the therapy was associated with mild adverse events, no serious side effects were reported, indicating a good safety profile, but further research with larger sample sizes is recommended to validate these findings.
