Study Summary

The purpose of this research is to gather information on the safety and effectiveness of Intrarosa®, also known as Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), and prasterone. By doing this study, the investigators hope to learn if Intrarosa® can improve vaginal discomfort. Participants will be assigned to one of two groups. One group will use Intrarosa® once a day. The other group will use Replens™ two times a week.

Primary Outcome

The change in the subject's calculated VMI from baseline to the end of treatment at 12 weeks (±1 week). VMI = 1.0 x %S + 0.5 x %I + 0.0 x %P cells, which is the same as VMI = %S + (0.5 x %I) when simplified. It has a potential range of 0-100. A VMI of 65-100 suggests a normal premenopausal environment, 50-64 indicates a moderate estrogenic effect, and \< 50 indicates atrophy.
