The treatment, meant to rejuvenate and treat dryness, worked no better than a placebo procedure.

A potentially risky laser treatment offered to menopausal women to rejuvenate the vagina is no better than sham or fake therapy, researchers say.to see if it might ease vaginal dryness and painful sex linked to going through the change.

Clinics claim kick-starting the body's healing process by purposefully injuring the tissue can increase natural lubrication and restore sexual gratification. The research, described in the Journal of the American Medical Association, is one of the largest studies to independently scrutinise the therapy using the "gold standard" design of a clinical trial.NICE has been calling for this type of work, to determine if the therapy is safe and beneficial enough to recommend for wider use in the NHS.

No serious side-effects were recorded - but during the year of follow-up, there was no discernible difference between the two groups in terms of symptom improvement either.
