Yes, there is hope as long as you don’t shy away from using the appropriate VA treatment. Its for life but if used in the amount required for you, you will get back to what was normal before the degeneration of the vagina started to occur. I will add though its a different outcome for ladies who suffer other conditions of the vagina, the journey is more difficult for them.
I loved my perfumed baths, hate showers, that alone makes the condition worse as another bit of your life disappears with age, but two years on from being a chronic case I can now have Epsom salt baths occasionally with added essential oils, but that really is just a treat!
I have to use daily treatment of Vagifem, Ovestin and moisturiser and bath every day using non soap products and Aqueous cream down below, this regime has made my life normal again, so there is hope!
