Vulvovaginitis Treatment  How do medications treat estrogen
deficient vulvovaginitis?  A Answers (1)    • Women diagnosed
with more severe cases of estrogen deficient vulvovaginitis can
be treated with hormonal replacement therapy (HRT) medication.
These medications aim to replace lowered levels of estrogen,
while keeping the rest of the body's hormones in balance. The
most recommended forms of hormonal replacement therapy
medication are vaginal creams and lubricants. These can be
applied daily or as often as necessary. HRT medication can also
come in the form of vaginal rings or tablets, which can be
inserted into the vagina and which secrete estrogen. A less
commonly used form of HRT medication is an oral pill, because
this incorporates estrogen more directly into the blood stream,
where it can interfere with the body's natural hormonal cycle.
