Hi! I’m totally new here and this post caught my eye. I was diagnosed with LS about 8 years ago. The only treatment I’ve been prescribed is clobetasol 0.5% ointment. When I have a flare (non-stop burning), I do a Yoni steam using a blend of cooling herbs I purchased from an Etsy store after consulting with my bestie, who’s a Midwife/Herbalist/Yoni specialist. It’s very soothing and doesn’t involve having to use a steroid cream or add another pill to my already overloaded regimen. HTH!

Would you expand on what a Yoni steam is. I am not familiar with that.
I was just wishing that I could find someone like your friend who had a more
naturopathic approach to this condition. I am concerned about the long term use of these steroids; my skin was already thin and overly sensitive before I started using any. alju
