Vaginal atrophy is one of the most common menopausal complications and is often overlooked. There are various pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatment approaches to reduce vaginal atrophy; however, no comprehensive study on a convenient, affordable, inexpensive, and noninvasive treatment with fewer complications has been conducted so far. Thus, the current study aimed to provide a systematic review of pharmacological treatment for vaginal atrophy in postmenopausal women in Iran. In this systematic review, all Iranian articles published in Persian or English during 2009 to 2019 were collected and analyzed by searching the Scopus, PubMed, Web of Science, Magiran, Iranian Registry of Clinical Trials (IRCT), and Cochrane Library databases. The inclusion criteria were clinical trials for vaginal atrophy and menopause. Based on the selection criteria, articles with a Jadad scale score of 3 and above were included in the study and qualitatively analyzed. Overall, 15 clinical trials met the inclusion criteria. In total, 12 articles examined the efficacy of pharmacological treatments (including three herbal medicines, three vitamins and dietary supplements, and two chemical drugs) in treating vaginal atrophy in postmenopausal women. Various types of medication have been used to improve vaginal atrophy, and effective treatments include licorice, chamomile, royal jelly, vitamin E, vitamin D, hyaluronic acid, and Vagifem; however, the results of studies on fennel have been inconsistent. However, considering the small number of studies reviewed, further studies with a stronger methodology are needed to confirm the efficacy of these medications.
