Study Summary

Aromatase inhibitors (AIs) are used to try to stop breast cancer from forming or returning after treatment in women who are in menopause and who had breast cancer that was sensitive to the hormone estrogen. The goal of this study is to learn if it is possible to prevent some AI side effects, particularly problems with vaginal dryness and pain during sexual activity. Researchers also want to compare 2 new vaginal moisturizers to see if using them regularly helps women avoid vaginal dryness. Researchers want to see if preventing these side effects will decrease the number of women who stop taking AIs due to the side effects they cause.

Primary Outcome

The primary outcome measure will be the total score from the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI), which is calculated according to a standard scoring algorithm and has a well-validated cut-off score of 26.55 or below indicating sexual dysfunction. FSFI subscale scores will also be calculated and analyzed.
