What is Senshio?

Senshio is a medication designed to assist postmenopausal women experiencing symptoms such as vaginal dryness, irritation, and pain during intercourse, which are caused by a lack of oestrogen during menopause. The medication contains ospemifene, a selective oestrogen receptor modulator (SERM). This is a non-hormonal treatment that works in a tissue-specific manner on oestrogen receptors and can improve the condition of the vaginal wall. Senshio is prescribed when local treatments, such as vaginal creams or tablets, are not suitable.
