Abstract
- Specific urogenital tract symptoms in women with diabetes mellitus are shown to directly correlate with the quality of compensation of carbohydrate metabolism while atrophic vulvovaginitis is both a consequence and an early marker of its decompensation. It is concluded that combined patogenetically sound treatment of acute and chronic "atrophic diabetic vulvitis" in patients presenting with disturbances of carbohydrate metabolism in the peri- and postmenopausal period should include Estrocard therapy, apart from thorough compensation of carbohydrate metabolism, in order to normalize the vaginal health index and the quality of life of the patients.
