Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether ospemifene is more effective than placebo in the treatment of vulvar and vaginal atrophy (VVA) in postmenopausal women.

Interventions

1 tablet (dose 30 mg/day) taken each morning with food for 12 weeks - from Visit 2 (Randomization, Day 1) to Visit 4 (Week 12).

1 tablet (dose 60 mg/day) taken each morning with food for 12 weeks - from Visit 2 (Randomization, Day 1) to Visit 4 (Week 12).

DRUGPlacebo

1 tablet taken each morning with food for 12 weeks - from Visit 2 (Randomization, Day 1) to Visit 4 (Week 12).

DRUGNonhormonal vaginal lubricant

Subjects should apply the vaginal lubricant as needed and record the usage in the medication diary.
