Brief Answer:
estrogen cream for local application

Detailed Answer:
Hello mam, it seems typically a case of atrophic vaginitis.
Apply cream estradiol cream premarin locally twice a week for at least 3 months. But before starting that you need to visit a gynecologist for examination to rule out estrogen dependent growth in body.
In case you have other questions, i will be happy to help.
