The main drivers of this growth are the increasing prevalence of vaginal infections, rising awareness about vaginal health, advancements in diagnostic and therapeutic solutions, and the growing demand for over-the-counter treatments for vaginal health issues like Vaginal Vulvovaginal Candidiasis (VVC).
Increasing utilization of antifungal treatments, both oral medications and topical creams, for the management and prevention of recurrent VVC is among the trends currently observed in the VVC market. In addition, there is increased demand for probiotics that are marketed as natural options for maintaining vaginal health and preventing vaginal infections. Virtual or telemedicine and digital health platforms are increasingly being utilized to offer virtual consultations for diagnosis and management of treatment, allowing women to access care from home more easily.
The VVC market is experiencing developments in more targeted therapies, including new antifungal agents or combination therapies that address recurrence. New diagnostic tools are in development as quicker and more accurate means of testing for VVC and its causative agents. There is a growing body of research exploring the role of the vaginal microbiome and its associated benefits for the prevention of infection, leading to the development of microbiome-targeted therapies. Finally, there is growing evidence of interest behind self-care products for women in preventing and managing VVC independently at home.
