I also use topical clobetasol ointment prescribed by my current gynecologist. She also prescribed topical estrogen to combat the skin thinning and mupirocin in the event of infected skin breaks. My LS impacts both the vulvar and perianal regions.

I found my current doctor after moving to a new town by searching on lichen sclerosis, willing to see either a dermatologist or gynecologist. I needed both but I had a flare. The doctor I found happened to be a gynecologist who specialized in both LS and menopausal women.
