Critical analysis of methods for assessing genitourinary syndrome of menopause used in clinical trials

Conclusions: Despite the heterogeneity observed, particularly for subjective assessment of symptoms, there was a tendency to standardize methods and to use an objective method together with a subjective, which seems to be fundamental to guarantee reproducibility and comparability of results of each treatment analyzed. Histological and immunohistochemistry tests may be an option as an objective method in further studies, to better assess thickness, vascularization, among other parameters.
