Interestingly our results also revealed that the majority of the mitochondrial factors increased in the frontal and parietal lobes, which may be in relation with the location of motor and sensory areas. Exercise can be used as a prophylactic approach against bioenergetics and mitochondrial dysfunction.The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of vaginal fractional CO2 laser therapy for female sexual dysfunction (FSD). A total of 84 women at high risk of sexual dysfunction were randomly divided into two groups. Women in the laser group received vaginal fractional CO2 laser therapy. Others in the Kegel group were advised to participate in Kegel exercise training. Sexual distress and sexual function were evaluated by using the Female Sexual Distress Scale-Revised (FSDS-R) and the Chinese version Female Sexual Function Index (CVFSFI), respectively. Adverse events were recorded during the 12-month follow-up. At the end of the 6th and 12th months, the lubrication scores of the CVFSFI in the laser group (4.55±0.05, 4.58±0.09) were significantly higher than those in the Kegel group (4.19±0.15, 4.20±0.14) (P less then 0.05). The satisfaction scores in the laser group (4.43±0.08) were higher than those in the Kegel group (4.20±0.16) at the end of the 6th month (P less then 0.05). The self-contrast test in the laser group showed significant improvement in lubrication, pain, satisfaction and total scores after CO2 laser therapy (p less then 0.05). These improvements were maintained for 1 year. The improvement of FSDS-R in the laser
