Lichen sclerosus or atrophy ?

Might not be appropriate for you but may be worth asking your GP if it would benefit you.

No

Have you ever been prescribed Vagirux? Has made a huge difference to me.

I have had lichen sclerosis for a number of years now. I have flares of it then it goes quiet. I was prescribed steroid cream for it but also find an aqueous cream works just as well. I have found GPs show little interest in this itchy burning condition. Ive never been examined for years to see if Ive got any concerns. I feel for some reason some GPs are reluctant to examine older women or maybe thats my prejudice but its also been my experience.

I notice this is in 'menopause', well I don't know if it makes a difference but a family member has Lichen Sclerosis and she is nowhere near menopause, and has had it for a long time although was fairly recently properly diagnosed. She's in her 20s.

The skin affected by lichen sclerosis is very pale and almost white.I now apply cream twice a week which controls it.Hope this helps.

I think lichen sclerosis shows as a skin condition and vulva atrophy is a dryness. But not sure. My doctor was very readily able to tell me I did not have ls and that I had va.
