The Dermatologist has been the most helpful for me. The Gynecologist prescription was a topical hormone which was a net neutral. Since we only comprise 1% of the population it is not surprising that it takes us so long to find the physician that knows and cares about L S. My effective treatment is also Clobetazol Ointment.

If you have postmenopausal vaginal lining problems that I believe contributes to the stinging and burning issues and just general uncomfortableness. Lack of estrogen will also cause that dry feeling. So sometimes getting a script for Premarin or Estragyn (may have the name not quite right) and applying externally may help. Premarin is scented so go with the latter.
