Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
LUBRICATION - Women with premature ovarian failure (IOP) will experience a significantly greater improvement in vaginal lubrication after the use of interferential current in relation to the use of topical estrogen. Based on the questionnaire female sexual function index (FSFI) with score (0 to 6) for the lubrication domain, 4 weeks after starting treatment with maintenance for at least 4 weeks after the end of the treatment.;SEXUAL FUNCTION - Women with premature ovarian insufficiency (IOP) will have a significantly greater improvement in sexual function after the use of interferential current in relation to the use of topical estrogen. Based on the questionnaire female sexual function index (FSFI) score (1.2 to 36) with a cut of at 26.55 for sexual dysfunction, 4 weeks after starting treatment and maintaining improvement for at least 4 weeks after the end of treatment.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
MICROBIOME- The microbiome of women with premature ovarian failure in the use of hormonal Therapy will not be affected by the use of Interferential Current or topical Estrogen. (Evaluated through the collection of vaginal secretion for vaginal flora analysis by means of pyosequencing) - Vaginal microbiome for the detection of bacterial end fungal content in the vagina. ;PELVIC FLOOR - The studied women will have a better pelvic floor musculature function after the use of interferential current in relation to those who use topical estrogen. Evaluated through electromyography (Miotec Miotool apparatus) with improved tone, maximum strength and endurance. After 4 weeks of treatment.
