Information
SENSHIO, also known by its generic name ospemifene, is a medication primarily used to treat moderate to severe dyspareunia (painful intercourse), a symptom of vulvar and vaginal atrophy due to menopause. As a selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM), SENSHIO works by mimicking the effects of estrogen on specific tissues in the body, such as the vaginal lining, without the widespread effects of estrogen itself. This helps to rebuild vaginal tissue and make intercourse less painful. It is an oral medication, offering an alternative for those who cannot or prefer not to use estrogen-based therapies. SENSHIO is not suitable for everyone, including women who have had certain types of cancers or thromboembolic disorders, so it's important to discuss your medical history with a healthcare provider before starting treatment.
