    The study suggests that a combination of low molecular weight hyaluronic acid (LMWHA) solution and hyperbaric oxygen (HCO) may improve mild and moderate stress and mixed urinary incontinence in women with genitourinary syndrome of menopause (GSM), showing potential superiority over hyaluronic acid (HA) therapy alone. However, the authors emphasize the need for further studies with a controlled design and a larger population to confirm these findings.
