Hi Thank you for asking HCM I have gone through your query.The problem you had gone through is most likely bacterial vaginosis.In such case i advise combination of antibiotics like clindamycin or metronidazole with clotrimazole as vaginal suppository or oral tab.I also advise my patients to use intimate wash regularly to normalize vaginal bacterial flora and PH and there by prevent getting further infections.If even after this feel atrophic appearance of vagina or decrease arousal it can be due to lack of estrogen.In such case estradiol therapy will be helpful.I give local estradiol creams for this.Hope this may help you. Let me know if you have any further query.
