Assessment of Change in Quality of Life of Women with Vulvovaginal Atrophy Symptoms
The change in the score obtained from the Vulvovaginal Symptoms Questionnaire will be recorded. The questionnaire will be administered at the baseline visit, after the last treatment, and at the 1-month, 3-month, and 6-month follow-up visits. The score ranges from 0 to 16 for sexually inactive women and from 0 to 20 for sexually active women. An improvement is defined as a decrease in score.
Time frame: 12 months
Assessment of Change in Quality of Life of Women with Urinary Incontinence
The change in the score obtained from the King's Health Questionnaire will be recorded. The questionnaire will be administered at the baseline visit, after the last treatment, and at the 1-month, 3-month, and 6-month follow-up visits. The score ranges between 0 to 100 for the nine domains, and between 0 to 30 for the Symptom Severity Scale. An improvement is defined as a decrease in score.
Time frame: 12 months
Assessment of Change in Sexual Functioning
The change in the score obtained from the 6-item Female Sexual Function Index will be recorded. The questionnaire will be administered at the baseline visit, after the last treatment, and at the 1-month, 3-month, and 6-month follow-up visits. The score ranges between 0 to 30. An improvement is defined as an increase in score.
Time frame: 12 months
Assessment of Therapy Comfort
Therapy Comfort questionnaire will be used for evaluating the comfort during the treatment sessions. The Therapy Comfort questionnaire will be administered after the last treatment. Therapy Comfort questionnaire consists of the question "I found the treatment comfortable", to which responses are based on a 5-point Likert scale (1 = "strongly disagree", and 5 = "strongly agree") and the 10-point Numeric Pain Rating Scale (0 = no pain, 10 = worst possible pain"). A higher score for the statement "I found the treatment comfortable", and lower score on the Numeric Pain Rating Scale indicate higher therapy comfort.

The questionnaire will be administered after the last treatment, and at the 1-month, 3-month, and 6-month follow-up visits. Responses to questions about the treated urogenital area will range from "strongly agree" (1 point) to "strongly disagree" (5 points). A higher score for each statement indicate better outcomes.
Time frame: 12 months
Incidence of Treatment-related Adverse Events
Monitoring of adverse reactions and side effects will be performed for the evaluation of safety of the combined application of the BTL-785F and HPM-6000UF devices and to identify side effects and adverse events associated with the study treatment.
