Brief Answer:
Please explain the context

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for using the Ask a Doctor service.

I have gone carefully through your query however it does not clarify the context of pH lowering. I believe that you are talking about the pH of vagina and you have already uaed Monistat. If you could detail the exact problem, I would be able to guide you through.

I would await your response.

Brief Answer:
HRT needed

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for writing back.

I have gone carefully through your query and now understand the actual concern. Going by the mentioned symptoms it seems that your vaginal itchiness is actually due to hormone deprivation. Such a thing is commonly encountered in perimenopausal or post-menopausal women. If that is the case, hormone replacement therapy (HRT) could provide relief. You need to visit a gynecologist to get evaluated and tested. He would be able to set up the right regimen for you. Merely trying to fix the pH would not help.

Let me know if I could help further.
