The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to test the efficacy of StrataMGT in the management of Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause (GSM) compared to estrogen therapy. The main question it aims to answer is:
- Will StrataMGT be non-inferior regarding patient quality of life compared to standard of care?
Participants will use either StrataMGT or estrogen vaginal cream to treat GSM for 3 consecutive months. After the baseline assessment, participants will be assessed monthly for quality of life, clinical signs, symptoms, pathology and adverse reactions.

| StrataMGT | Device | StrataMGT is a 100% medical grade film-forming silicone gel for the treatment of cutaneous skin lesions and Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause. StrataMGT is a flexible wound dressing used on compromised skin. It dries to form a thin, flexible wound dressing which hydrates and protects affected areas. StrataMGT is used to relieve low grade inflammatory changes such as dry, itching, flaking, peeling and irritated skin. StrataMGT is designed for partially epithelized skin and is suitable for children and patients with sensitive skin. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |

| PROM: Quality of Life | The improvement of patient quality of life will be assessed at baseline and during each monthly follow-up using the patient-rated Vulvar Disease Quality of Life (VQLI) Index questionnaire. Questions are rated on a numeric scale from 0 (not at all) - 3 (very much). This outcome is patient-rated, thus unblinded. | 3 months |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Clinical signs | Signs are rated by the investigator (blinded) during baseline and at the final visit after 3 months, using a combination of visual assessment and categorical scale ranging from 0=normal to 10=worst possible. | 3 months |
