In response to your question, I am still struggling controlling my lichen sclerosus (LS). This is partially my own fault, I am not consistent with the medication, Clobetasol Propionate. I had flare up few months ago and went in for recheck. Was scared it had progressed to something else. First, it took months to get an appt with gyn provider. Like most speciatitis, it is hard to get appt. When finally got into to see someone, she confirmed it was LS flare up and told me to increase ointment for few months.

I think LS is under diagnosed. My primary stopped doing pelvic exams years ago and when I asked specifically about a problem, he missed the LS. I self-referred myself to gynecology dept and glad I did. Now I do yearly gyn appts.

Most women have no idea what it is or results of untreated LS.

Hope treatment goes well for you.
