- W2112597506 abstract "Vulvovaginal atrophy (VVA), also known as genitourinary syndrome of menopause, exerts a negative impact on the sexuality, health and quality of life of post-menopausal women. A better understanding of post-menopausal women's profiles as defined by their attitude and behaviours in relation to their VVA symptoms may improve public health policies and will allow appropriate targeting of public health campaigns. These improvements may help women of middle and advanced age recover and maintain their quality of life. In this study, we analysed the attitudes of post-menopausal women, aged 45-74 years, with VVA symptoms from five European countries, with the aim of identifying profile markers to improve healthcare strategies.Two consecutive cross-sectional studies were conducted in five European countries (the UK, France, Spain, Germany and Italy). An initial exploratory study (n=69) was based on interviews and then an analytical study (n=749) was based on online surveys to validate women's profiles by means of a multi-level approach.We identified eight profiles: self-treater, pragmatic, vivacious, reserved, silent sufferer, expressive, stoic and sad. The percentage distribution varied among the countries. The 'pragmatic', 'vivacious' and 'expressive' women were the most proactive, talkative and open with their healthcare professional, whereas women with the 'reserved' and 'stoic' profiles showed less interest in searching for information about their VVA symptoms, either from their healthcare professional or from other sources.The attitudes and behaviours of post-menopausal women in relation to their VVA allow for the clear definition of a series of profiles with varying representation across countries. This study reveals the importance of identifying post-menopausal women's profiles to develop interventions to help them overcome barriers to the diagnosis, management and treatment of VVA." @default.
