Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Assessment of the local performance of MUCOGYNE® Gel in reducing vulva irritation | Day 0 to Day 35 +/- 3 | Secondary efficacy criteria \- Auto-evaluation, by the subjects, of pain and/or dyspareunia on Visual Analogical Scales (VAS) from 0 to 10 |
| Assessment of the local performance of MUCOGYNE® Gel in reducing vulvo-vaginal dryness | Day 0 to Day 35 +/- 3 | Secondary efficacy criteria \- Clinical scoring of vulvo-vaginal dryness by the Investigator on a Visual Analogical Scale from 0 to 10 |
| Assessment by investigator of changes in patient's clinical status | Day 0 to Day 35 +/- 3 | Secondary efficacy criteria \- Completion of the CGI-I (Clinical Global Impressions-Improvement) by the Investigator. |
| Assessment of changes in patient's clinical status | Day 0 to Day 35 +/- 3 | Secondary efficacy criteria \- Completion of the Patients' Global Impression of Change (PGIC) Scale to assess the changes perceived by the patient following the treatment taken. |
| Assessment of the patient's satisfaction | Day 0 to Day 35 +/- 3 | Secondary efficacy criteria \- Completion of the intra vaginal treatment satisfaction questionnaire (Likert questionnaire) to assess the level of satisfaction of the treatment on the vaginal symptoms. |
