Hello ALL! PLEASE CONTINUE READING IF YOU WANT TO STOP YOUR lichen sclerosus...

So I have posted on here before, hectic flare up/ anal fissure/ uti you name it and have had lichen sclerosus for about 8-9 motnhs now. This being the worst month of my life, I got a biopsy in feb came back neg for cancer and was perscribed Celestone a steroid to put on which made it so so much worse and progressed my disease. Then I got an anal fissure from the lichen (HELL). Anyways went to a new gyno and he couldnt do a biopsy cause it was too enflamed and gave me advantan fatty cream to try and said to stop steroids. THEN

I finally decided to go to a Chinese Medicine Doctor in Sydney to try my luck as I was becoming desperate and feared I would never be able to have sex again with my amazing boyfriend of 2 years (I am 24). LONG STORY SHORT he had never heard of lichen sclerosus and did the standard chinese logical medicine exam (tounge, pulse, thyroid ect) turns out, my immune system was not functioning properly and my hormones were out of wack thus causing everything else in my body to be weak and allow for viruses and chronic diseases to attack my body very easily. He said my circulation was horrible and my digestion was not ideal for the nutrients were not being distributed throughout my body (I am so healthy its rediculous so I found this quite a shock!!) 

Anyways, had two 'treatments' with him and he said to STOP using anything western medicine gives me aka steroids and antibiotics. NO NO NO these are your worst enemy. Westen medicine is taught to treat what is enflamed, not the REASON why it is enflamed. He said one set of antibiotics can ruin your whole body system. So he gave me a cream that has chinese symbols all over it to apply to my lichen sclerosus, and brain/circulation herbs & toxic removal herbs at night & hormone balancing herbs to treat my immune system and get my balance back. He said if I get my blood count (white) back up and get my body balance back my lichen will simply "dissapear"

I was hesitant of course to stop my gyno's orders and ditch the steroids for good, yes it was frightening, do I trust a little chinese man in a dingy shop who has reputable reviews of natural cures world wide? I chose YES. and for the past 9 days I have only been using the chinese herbs and the creams and limiting my gluten/sugar to help the toxins get out of my body. AND

I sit here now. I have no itching, I have no pain, I can ride my bike, I went on a RUN today, I had sex again! I feel amazing and I feel mentally how I did about 3 years ago (NOT STRESSED AND ANXIETY FILLED) It is still not COMPLETELY healed but I am getting CLOSE GUYS. This is insane. My skin down there is becoming revujanated. I am never putting steroids down there again!!!!!

Remember, if steroids have been helping you, they are simpoly treating the symptoms NOT the disease which I know will 100% claim is an autoimmune problem mixed with hormone imbalances and stress. So guys please try a naturopath, I know its hard. But I am getting better everyday and at this rate (I know everyone is different) but I rekon I could completely rid myself of this horrible disease FOREVER. Inbox me if you would like more details. I AM SO SO HAPPY and just want everyone with this horrible disease to have hope that YOU CAN GET RID OF IT! And of course I still use chinese medicine with the "oversee-ing" of a gyno but I choose to use natural NOT steroids that are going to make me have further complications later in life. 

Other things to help all you ladies:

MANUKA HONEY- USE IT ON YOUR FLARE UPS (I use +20 grade for extra strength) Do not use any other honey for wounds or medical purposes as it will be GRADE A and will cause further harm.

EMU OIL- MOISTURIZER YES. Important to note that emu oil alone WILL NOT cure or reverse lichen sclerosus but will be an amazing natural moisturizer.

COCONUT OIL- use it on your genitals. you will have a young vagina forever. Drink/ eat 2-4 tablespoons a day you will surprise yourself it is a natural viral stopper for the body. make sure it is EXTRA VIRGIN and organic.

VASELINE- protector from peeing (if have flare up) and helps stop the vaguna opening from getting tighter (THIS WORKS) I apply every day now and can also be a lube!

RASBERRY LEAF TEA- YOUR LIFESAVER. Drink this stuff everyday. It tones the uterus linning and is AMAZING for your digestive system, it also gets your hormone levels back to normal in about 5 days of drinking 2-3 cups a day. 

There are more natural remidies which have been mentioned on this site, but in general you guys need to make sure you get heaps of sleep or your body will never recover. ALSO I only wash with emuaid Soap in the shower (bum/vag) and it is the only thing that doesn't sting for me (I have tried everything).

I HOPE this helps you guys. I will chekc back in, in another week to let you know If I am actually cured, but at this rate I believe it will be. My bits down there have never looked this good, white almost gone, wounds almost completely gone!! (had sores for 4-5 months at a time) and my pink color is coming back! My swelling is completely GONE!!! My chinese doctor said I have decreased the swelling by 68% in 5 days. I am just so excited. Stay hopefull guys xxx Dsauce

    Hello, I have had symptoms for 10 years before finally being diagnosed this past March, 2017. I have it vaginally and all in my backside. I have a ton of atrophy vaginally and am beyond scared at this point. I just turned 33 and am terrified of what it's going to look like within even the next year, let alone 20! I went to U of M for the center for Vulvar Disease Department and was prescribed steroid cream for the rest of my life. Which is giving me yeast infections now. Which I've never had. I started to see a naturopath here in Michigan, but no improvement yet. Is there anywhere that anyone has found that gives specific information on a protocol to use, herbally/homeopathically, for a cure? I'm willing to try anything. I have no inner labia or anything left, let alone the horrible itching. I'm so depressed about this. I also found a book on Amazon, forget the title, but it's about beating lichen Sclerosis, has anyone read this or tried it out?

      There are natural ways. I do not take steroid creams and have really got a very managed condition... some would say remission of it. You need to start nutritionally and with cutting things out as well as supplementing. Personally, I would not stay on the steroids. The yeast infections will only make LS worse.

      I'm being treated for parasites and for liver support right now through the naturopath. I'm also drinking organic aloe vera juice, taking probiotics and am on a mostly organic diet. I also eat little sugar but am going to try to cut it out fully. Is there any specific protocol you'd recommend? I am using the steroid when I flare up and want to be fully off it and get this into remission.

      I also found out that using the clobetasol every other day caused me to get a yeast problem that was horrible and they prescribed Greers Goo and WOW does that make a huge difference!  They told me to lay off the clobetasol for at least a week--after reading more it can be hard to tell the difference between the two and the steroid can make you more prone to the yeast skin rash in perineal area which BURNS so -- I really find I don't get much guidance from the Doc and she wanted to put me on methotrexate--eeeek!  She talked me into a "steroid sparing ointment"  called Protopic but there is controversy whether it can cause Lymphoma in some people---this can be exhausting!  Anyway, I try to really limit gluten and sugar and some of the areas are cleared up totally--no scarring--told my Doc how a lot of things that can help are lifesyle and she looked at me and said "I am an Allopath"  which means she only believes in FDA chemical treatments! Oh well---am glad for this group.  I would like to be totally off this steroid especially after getting the yeast problem so I am hoping I also can taper this off eventually--I think me using it every other day was way too much for my skin.

    Hello I'm 19 and a female i believe I have lichen sclerosis. I don't have health insurance or money for a doctor and fortunately I'm going to school for naturopathic medicine to become a ND ((:  im African American and have dark skin so I was wondering if anyone knows what it's suppose to look like on brown skin ... mines seems to be a light pink color very obvious that something isn't right. The pink of your insides like under eyelid color or vagina color instead of white spots mines are pink and looks more like a vitiligo patch and not necessarily 'spots' I have fusing in my inner labia and outer (majora & minora) also tears and perinuim and anal discomfort im not sexually active.... and frankly have never been only a few times but so much pain I discovered my LS  (well I'm sure that hats what it is) after my sexual assualt some months back I was under extreme stress having anxiety attacks so it could've triggers my flare up and let me know I do have LS.  Please if anyone could understand I'd greatly appreciate your help. I was told I had Bacteria vaginosis when I went to a free clinic and a UTI they gave me metronidazole which made me crazy and severely sick I could not even eat so I couldn't finish the cycle thank God .

      I have tried many things that some people say works for them but I don't have the results I would like to report at this point.  Every body is different and I have learned that what may work for one person won't necessarily work for another.  I won't give up and I will persevere until I get the healing I believe I can experience.  Several months ago I starting a program with a functional medicine doctor who is digging deeper into autoimmune issues.  LS is an autoimmune issue which conventional doctors usually say cannot be reversed.   I don't know where you live, but you may want to look into these types of doctors.  These doctors have medical degrees and work at deeper levels to learn why a person has the illness they have and then they develope a program for recovery.  It could also help you.  Along with the LS, I am also currently working on a minor digestive issue, seasonal allergies and acne.  The help I have been getting from my functional medicine dr is great and she is hopeful for my recovery.  Hope this helps you.  Keep searching because there are answers out there for all of us!   Don't ever give up!
