After well studying for of your history of complaints/symptoms for ClitVulvoVaginal part's condition as reported by your gynecologist. I am of the expert opinion that since your marital status is "DIVORCED”, so your problems may not be rooted out so easily as your problems are stress related too. You are been well advised to practice pelvic floor muscles’ toning exercises and not to take more antibiotics as they have ill effects on our body. Take plenty of fluid and maintain hygiene by washing the affected part with cold water. Again if problems persist then you may try homeopathy and I am sure you will be alright.
