What Causes Itching And Dryness In The Vagina?
My mother is 87 and having a problem with feminine itching and dryness. She is not taking any medications. What can we find for her to use to stop the itch and should we look into finding out what is causing it? She had been using Nyistatine( not sure of spelling ) and seemed to work but insurance will no longer cover it for her and it is pretty costly.
