Figure 1. Mean visual analog scale (VAS) score over time for the two treatment groups. Vaginal erbium laser (VEL) group and VEL + Nd:YAG group VAS scores were compared using the post-hoc test with Bonferroni correction. *p < 0.001 versus T0 of VEL group. **p < 0.001 versus T0 of VEL + Nd:YAG group. §p < 0.001 versus corresponding time of VEL group. L1, L2, L3, laser applications; T0 (baseline), 2–4 weeks prior to first laser treatment; T1, 1 month from last laser application; T3, 3 months from last laser application; VEL + Nd:YAG, neodymium:yttrium–aluminum–garnet.
