I'm trying not to use Clobestol because for first the first time in 10 years I am in worse shape. I was in remission for about 2 years. I'm changing my diet and use castor oil morning noon and night. I wash with organic lavender soap. Not sure that's wise but it is lavender. I have already lost one of my labia. Woke up last week and realized it was gone. It's weird. I feel like I have leprosy.

Oh you poor love, I feel for you. I suggest you get some HYDROMOL OINTMENT and put a good dollop of that all over to act as a barrier till your skin calms down. There is nothing in this that will burn or irritate at will protect you're vulva from your uterine. Did you have the the burning BEFORE you used the steroid ?

When I get a bad flare up as you have described I use an anaesthetic obtained from the doctor. It still stings but then after a few minutes the area is numb enough to apply the dermovate. Dermovate must be massaged in for 90 seconds for full effect. Please try and persist with the dermovate as u will benefit in the long run. I use it twice a week now for maintenance, as soon as I get the tell tale itch. I also wipe with E45 every time I use the loo.
I hope u feel better soon, I know the pain is excruciating , and more so when you apply dermovate as the skin is so raw. But it will get better. If u cannot see doc ask pharmacist for the numbing jel but explain the area it is for ! Xx

I agree with those who say stop using it. Let the area rest. Spray the area with bottled spring water after urinating. Blot the excess urine off the pubic area, and then spray. I keep my water cold in the frig. If u start the steroid again, make sure it is the ointment not the cream, as I heard it burns less, and maybe much milder strength. Use no soap, and when you get better, use something like Cetaphil.

Oh so sorry to hear you are suffering we all know here what that feels like and we are here to support you and each other .
The Bicarb and water in a spray was a godsend to me i carry one in my bag and use after every time i pass water .
Also petroleum jelly or Coconut oil as a barrier to moisturise first rubbed in well before the steroid.
No soap i get Derma 500 from my GP to wash with and i no longer bath but shower .
Hope you feel better soon and let us know how you are doing .
🤗😘
