Hi, Becky. Yes, I have been diagnosed. I have vulvar lichen planus. Being treated with betamethasone & tacroliumus. Has helped with the symptoms. I thought I had developed it on my scalp also, but it turned out to be seborrheic dermatitis. Whew. A physician had told me 20 or so years ago I had lichen planus, but the symptoms didn't start kicking up until last year. I'm 72.

I’m glad you’ve been diagnosed and are getting treatment for the lichen Planus. And, you say it’s working! What kind of doctor are you seeing? Your primary doctor or a specialist?
