Suggest Treatment For Constant Vaginal Itching

I am a 68 year old woman. I am not sexually active as I lost my husband 4 yrs. ago. I have some urine leaking but my main problem is almost constant vaginal itching. I wash and put on vaginal itch cream and it works for a few hours, but then the itching comes back. What can I do.
