I too have LS and use clobetasol and estrogen cream. Could you please share the amitriptyline dose you are taking? I want to discuss adding that with my gyn.
Also, wanted to mention- I often use a squeeze bottle filled with water To gently rinse after urination- it has helped reduce external burning.

Sonya_nc I was told to take 1-2 tablets at night, but have kept it to one per night so far. I occasionally use a portable biday to go on top of the toilet and use bicarbonate soda in warm water, it seems to help with the itch..My biggest problem with this condition is when I suffer flare ups (quite often) it leaves me feeling really off, and really dont feel like doing anything.

Coconut Oil has been very helpful to me with the burning. It is very healing. RET18
