Любые эпителиальные ткани реагируют на изменение окружающей их гормональной среды сходным образом, но ни одна из них не может сравниться с эпителием свода влагалища и шейки матки по скорости и отчетливости реакции на гормоны, в первую очередь на половые стероиды. Урогенитальный тракт особенно чувствителен к снижению уровня эстрогенов, и около половины всех женщин, как в репродуктивном возрасте, так и в периоде гормональной перестройки, могут испытывать симптомы, связанные с вульвовагинальной атрофией, затрагивающие сексуальное здоровье и качество жизни. Эстриол — основной эстроген, который таргетно решает проблемы, обусловленные эстрогенной недостаточностью: диспареунии, сухости и зуда во влагалище и нижних отделах мочеполового тракта, нарушения мочевыведения, умеренного недержания мочи, а также рецидивирующего вульвовагинита и цистита. Согласно международным и российским клиническим рекомендациям патогенетически обоснованно назначение 0,5 мг с высоким уровнем убедительности и достоверности. Вульвовагинальная дистрофия у женщин различных возрастов — это мультидисциплинарная проблема на стыке гинекологии, урологии и дерматологии, которая может и должна быть решена для предотвращения более тяжелой гинекологической и урологической патологий.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>Research in recent decades has shown a steady increase in the average life expectancy of humans, and women in particular. Any epithelial tissue reacts to changes in the surrounding hormonal environment in a similar way, but none of them can compare with the epithelium of the vaginal vault and cervix in terms of the speed and clarity of reaction to hormones, primarily sex steroids. The urogenital tract is especially sensitive to a decrease in estrogen levels, and about half of all women, both in reproductive age and during hormonal changes, may experience symptoms associated with vulvovaginal atrophy, affecting sexual health and quality of life. Estriol is the main estrogen that specifically addresses problems caused by estrogen deficiency: dyspareunia, dryness and itching in the vagina and lower genitourinary tract, urinary disorders, moderate urinary incontinence, as well as recurrent vulvovaginitis and cystitis. According to international and Russian clinical guidelines, the prescription of 0.5 mg is pathogenetically justified with a high level of persuasiveness and reliability. Vulvovaginal dystrophy in women of different ages is a multidisciplinary problem at the intersection of gynecology, urology and dermatology, which can and should be solved to prevent more severe gynecological and urological pathologies.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>эстриол</kwd><kwd>менопауза</kwd><kwd>атрофия влагалища</kwd><kwd>дефицит эстрогенов</kwd><kwd>аменорея</kwd><kwd>локальная терапия</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>estriol</kwd><kwd>menopause</kwd><kwd>vaginal atrophy</kwd><kwd>estrogen deficiency</kwd><kwd>amenorrhea</kwd><kwd>local therapy</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group><funding-statement xml:lang="ru">Работа выполнена в рамках государственного задания №123021300169-4 «Эпигенетические предикторы и метаболомная составляющая аменореи различного генеза у женщин репродуктивного возраста», 2023–2025 гг.</funding-statement></funding-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><ref id="cit1"><element-citation><name><surname>Calleja-Agius</surname> <given-names>J.</given-names> </name> <name><surname>Brincat</surname> <given-names>M.
