Design Uncontrolled pilot
Multicenter study on women with genito-pelvic pain
Authors: J. E. Rodriguez Martinez · M. C. López Martínez · J. Martínez Mas · M. del M. Conesa Peñalver
Publication affiliations: Murcian Institute of Sexology · CIAGO
21 recruited; 11 completed · 12 weeks
Investigators followed women with genito-pelvic pain/penetration disorder (GPPPD) during 12 weeks of home use of Crescendo.
Reported findings
- Mean FSFI pain-domain score increased from 0.40 to 2.32 among the 11 completers.
- Higher FSFI pain-domain scores indicate less pain; this is a score change, not a fivefold reduction in pain.

1 participant · 8 weeks
Investigators documented eight weeks of home use of Molto by one patient diagnosed with vaginismus and pain during penetration.
Reported findings
- FSFI pain-domain score increased from 0 to 4.8 on the 0–6 scale.
A fold increase cannot be calculated from a zero baseline. This result describes one patient.

1 participant · 6 weeks
A six-week case report followed a 46-year-old breast-cancer survivor with sexual interest/arousal disorder. MV Health identifies the study device as Poco.
Reported findings
- Total FSFI score increased from 12.2 to 22.4.
- Desire increased from 1.2 to 3.6; arousal and lubrication each increased from 1.5 to 3.6.
- The patient reported high satisfaction and rated her condition as much improved.

18 participants
Investigators studied sexual education combined with the Poco wearable device in 18 premenopausal women with female sexual interest/arousal disorder (FSIAD).
Reported findings
- FSFI lubrication scores improved significantly, with a positive but non-significant trend in arousal.
- No significant change was reported in desire.

Author and affiliation details await verification of the original report.
15 participants · 8 weeks (company summary)
A qualitative study explored scheduled device use in women with pelvic-floor disorders and sexual dysfunction; the company summary identifies Poco and a mean age of 60.3 years.
Findings summarised by MV Health
- Participants described improvements in desire, orgasm, urinary urgency and leakage, vaginal dryness and pelvic pain.
- They also described greater confidence, improved mood and sleep, and relaxation.
These are qualitative participant experiences, not measured comparative treatment effects.

Vibrational interventions for sexual and pelvic health: a randomized controlled trial

Publication affiliations: University of Chicago, Division of Urogynecology · Albany Medical Center, Division of Urogynecology
84 randomized; 81 completed · 8 weeks
At a US referral center, women with pelvic-floor disorders and sexual dysfunction were randomized to an educational handout alone or the handout plus scheduled device use three times weekly.
Reported findings
- At eight weeks, mean total FSFI was 22.2 with device use versus 16.3 with the handout alone (P = .002).
- Mean FSFI improvement was 8.8 versus 4.9 points; the reported between-group difference was 4.0 points (P = .002).
- 35.0% versus 12.2% reached an FSFI score above 26.5 (P = .02).

Initials and affiliations as printed in the supplied report.
19 interviews · median age 69 (range 23–75)
Investigators explored how urogynecology patients feel about discussing intimate-device use with their healthcare providers.
Reported findings
- Reported barriers included embarrassment, shame, fear of judgment and perceived provider discomfort.
- Participants suggested that clinicians initiate the conversation, supported by screening questions, brochures and a health-focused discussion.
The supplied study report includes 19 interviews conducted from June 2024 to February 2025, analyzed using grounded theory methods. It concerns communication and patient experience, not treatment effectiveness.

30 enrolled; 19 analyzed (10 intervention, 9 control)
A feasibility and acceptability study followed women using Poco alongside standard vaginal dilator therapy and compared their experience with a non-device group.
Reported findings
- Mean FSFI pain score increased from 1.40 to 3.36 with the adjunct device, versus 1.96 to 2.62 in the comparison group.

Parameter-focused conference report
A conference poster examined Crescendo 2 stimulation parameters in women experiencing difficulties with orgasm, lubrication and arousal.
Findings summarised by MV Health
- MV Health reports an increase in mean FSFI orgasm score from 1.62 to approximately 3.47 at follow-up, alongside improvements in lubrication and arousal.
- The company summary also reports 90.47% coital orgasm achievement.
This may overlap with the situational-anorgasmia case series; it should not be counted as a separate independent trial without confirmation.
