It suffer from lichen sclerosis in the genital area. It took 6 months in extreme pain to get the diagnosis. I was prescribed dermovate cream which helped after about two weeks. I was advised by my dermatologist not to use soap in areas affected and given a prescription for dermal shower emollient. I was also advised not to use wet toilet tissue or any panty liners. Since then, I have not had any real flare up from this because the minute I feel a little pain I use the dermovate cream. Hope this helps.
