Lichen sclerosus, perhaps?

I tried all sorts from the chemist to stop this problem. Then I was diagnosed with T2 diabeties meds for that were an instant cure.

Hey you lovely lot. So months ago I posted about extreme itching and pain in the lady garden area , you all gave me lots of advice. I saw my GP who after a lot of back and forth did swab tests and everything came back negative ( thankfully ) anyway I then got told I needed an appointment to see a specialist ... excellent I thought light at the end of the tunnel ( pardon the pun ) then I got the appointment for 6 months from now SIX MONTHS. So I have had to spend £250 to get a private appointment to see a Dr. The appointment is 4/1 and I am hoping that I will be told what’s wrong given treatment and can get in with my life. No more waking up like I’ve been heavy petting with Freddy Kruger , no more planning a wake for my once perfect lady garden , no more keeping boots afloat with my spending on everything aledged to help and cure what ails me , no more having to say remember when we had sex and it was good. So for anyone out there suffering with the most embarrassing painful depressing symptoms stay tuned. I might just have the answer to it.
