@scarlettoh Hi, is this a new diagnosis for you? Have your doctors been able to help you? I, personally, have not heard of a diet specific to Lichen sclerosis, but i know that many members swear by the AIP (auto-immune protocol) diet. Here is a link:
https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/aip-diet-autoimmune-protocol-diet
I also found this support group for lichen sclerosis:
https://www.lssupport.net/lichen-sclerosus-and-diet-does-the-research-look-good/
I will see if any other members can help
Will you let me know how you like the diet?

I followed the link on AIP. But since I'm also pescatarian, it eliminated almost my entire diet! I get nearly all of my protein from legumes, nuts/seeds, eggs and dairy.
Is there any research into developing a testing process for auto-immune sensitivities similar to what is done for allergy testing?
