Some people who can't tolerate the cream, possibly because of the products used to produce it, rather than the active ingredient, can avoid that problem with the ointment. I say that because I have personally had greater succes in reducing pain and itch with the ointment. But its good that there is choice.

Hi I just let a appointment with a actual gyn not a nurse practioner. This dr
Knows alot about lichen sclerosis. She was really awesome. She said she don't believe I have it but rather a condition called lichen simplex chronicus. She had a regimen for me. I have all the details in paperwork but I have to see her in 3 months just so she can recheck it. I do have a ultrasound scheduled for next Monday for check my uterus she just wants to make sure it's OK. I'm kinda nervous but glad it is being done

i have been fine with the ointment. and she also prescribed a oral pill to take at night right before bed. the cream just was awful for me. but i cant say enough how really good the doctor was. glad she wanted to do a ulytasound and be so thourough but i really think that will be fine i dont think she will find anything seriously wrong but i have wanted one done for a long time its just noone would do it. so relief. oh she also recommended sitz baths.
