I have vaginal Lichen Scelrosis. I went to many doctors through the years who did not help me. I finally found Dr.Nyirjesy in Drexel University College of Medicine in Philadelphia PA who got my Lichen Sclerosis under control after a few months. It can be on other parts of the body but not in my case. There were no over the counter creams, etc but none worked for me.

I’m so glad it is under control now. My flare is going on three months. I see a specialist in this area in January. Some days, the redness, pain, swelling, and itching is very difficult. I always can’t wait to get home to put uncomfortable clothes.i am not sure the clobetesal is even working. Most articles I read say it takes a few weeks, not several months to calm down. I get checked every other month. The whole thing makes me a wreck because it just came out of nowhere.
