Hi,
Thanks for your question on HCM
I do understand your concern
“As” per your clinical history is concerned if you are on post menopause then take combined hormone replacement therapy and use a vaginal estrogen cream regularly along with live yogurt and this will clear dryness and normalizes normal bacterial flora. Check if you have any itching present or not if present discuss with your doctor about clotrimazole vaginal tab. Do check any discharge present or not.
Hope that helps
