Effectiveness of a Telerehabilitation Program for Improving Sexual Function and Reducing Pain in Menopausal Women

The aim of this study is to analyze the effectiveness of a telerehabilitation program with respect to a face-to-face physiotherapy protocol in relation to the improvement of sexual function, the reduction of pain and the improvement of the quality of life, in the treatment of menopausal women with dyspareunia.

Both therapies have been proven to be effective, but since now any randomized controlled trial has been conducted to compare the results regarding the improvement in the sexual function, the reduction of pain and the improvement of quality of life in this population. The investigators hypothesize that the implementation of an asynchronous online telerehabilitation program is not inferior to the effect of the treatment carried out with a face-to-face physiotherapy protocol, in relation to the main variables obtained with the instruments Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI), the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and Menopause Specific Quality of Life Questionnaire (MENQOL). Secondary goals are: 1) to evaluate whether the incorporation of a telerehabilitation program to face-to-face treatment increases the effectiveness in relation to performing only the face-to-face physiotherapy protocol, 2) compare the size of the vaginal dilator inserted painlessly at the end of the treatment in all groups, 3) identify any adverse effects associated with the intervention during the study, 4) detail the degree of adherence to the treatment and 5) record satisfaction with the treatment using the Likert Scale.
