Don't bin the applicator, use as CLKD said every night for 2 or 3 weeks, then drop down to 2 or 3 times a week. Externally you could use a vaginal moisturiser, perhaps one of the Yes products. Two nights is not nearly enough to make a difference. The vaginal and vulval tissues need some time to get plumped up from the oestrogen, and then you should start to feel a difference. Patience is the thing, as VA will have been developing for a while before you ran into trouble, so it takes a while for the products to work.
Incidentally, my GP also told me just to use it externally, but this is b*ll*ocks, GPs often don't know much about VA.
As mentioned, use a decent lube and/or moisturiser. Have a look at the Yes website.
