Background: Relieving vulvar pain caused by atrophy in postmenopausal women is a challenge in our clinical practice. We know more and more about the vulva, its anatomy and physiology and we are realizing that it is different from the vagina. The importance of the vulvar approach in the management of vulvar or vestibular pain (VP) due to atrophy in postmenopausal women is becoming increasingly important. A panel of experts from several Spanish scientific societies (Spanish Menopause Society, AEEM; Spanish Federation of Sexology Societies, FESS; Spanish Society of Primary Care Physicians, SEMERGEN; and the Spanish Society of Gynecology and Obstetrics) held a meeting to discuss treatment recommendations for women with vulvar and VP based on the best available evidence, creating a report to describe grades of recommendations.
