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

      I haven’t changed my diet much yet because I’m not sure what to change.  I found on another post a young lady called soujourn wellness in Oakland and they helped her a lot.  I’ve called them and have a phone consultation with them in August.  Hoping they can help me too.  Good luck.

      I found that using a low dose steroid 1% hydrocortisone with equal amounts of Nystatin cream with a barrier cream like Desitin or I use a triple zinc oxide I order online-- once a day keeps the horrible itching and redness down.  I could not use high dose steroids since it caused horrible yeast rash where I could not hardly sit or move so tried high dose steroids and after 4 days I get the afore mentioned reaction.

    I had to order the Honey and tea. Started my tea today.

    Have not received the honey yet. Do you take the honey or use it on the vagina ? Been using steroid for 3 years now. I'm so glad I found your site. I'm so ready to get rid of this. Hopefully waiting on a response

    Thank you

    I know this post is 4+ years old, but I was just wondering if you had any uodates? I am looking into using TCM, but am so scared to come off the steroid. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

      Hi Jessica.  I’ve been doing the Chinese herbs for about a month or so and have seen 50% improvement and never used the steroid cream.  I also didn’t have all the symptoms of LS ( no itching just pigmentation issues)  I also cut out sugar and have been eating 98% of meals at home and am staying away from processed foods as much as possible.  I’ve seen visible improvement.  I’m happy to share more with you if you would like to provide your email or cell.  It’s hard to communicate on this blog.  Best of luck.

      Hi Jessica,

      My gbyn had me to use only the steroid very sparingly. She says its very strong. I was diagnosed with LC only 3 years ago. I'm now 65. They did a biopsy to verify it. It only flares up about every six months. She gave me estrodial cream all three times and it always clears up. She said that hormonal imbalance is the culprit. Considered autoimmune disease. It never completely goes away, cause there is no real cure. So see a gbyn and ask for the estrodial cream 0.1mg.. Hope you get some relief. It's miserable to have.

      hi , just a few months ago i posted here because i was having such a hard time with my LS.. two months later and i'm a lot better with very few flare ups the past month. I ordered the emuaid ointment and have been using it daily and my symptoms have gone down A LOT... i went off the steroids and onto this treatment and am feeling so much better. i've used the steroids two times on some bothersome flare ups but overall i find the emuaid to work better and it's all natural. I would recommend trying it. it's expensive (50 dollars) but worth the relief and lasts a while. if you have any questions about it or my routine feel free to message me

      Hi,  I was just diagnosed two months ago with LS. My OB/GYN put me on the clob as well. Can you please tell me what Chinese herbs you were using that seemed to give you the improvement.  I have several different creams and autoimmune herbs that of been recommended on here. I am really in a flareup currently,  mainly the white pigmentation present at this time. I am remaining hopeful and reading as much as I can about LS.  I am 58 years old and post menopausal.

      Hi Cathey,

      I'm 70 and just diagnosed with LS. I've just started on a mid-strength steroid --Triamcinolone 0.025% ointment. I mix it with some coconut oil and have been applying 2 times a day. Just completed one week and it's been great to stop any itching at all. I was also given an estrogen cream -- Estradiol 0.01% which I haven't started using yet. Do you apply it vaginally or just massage it into the labia, etc? I've heard it helps with bringing back the pink color and elasticity.
