Dermatologist or Gyni which should I see

I have been told to apply DERMOVATE for three months for labia LP. However I am not sure if I have been mis diagnosed as I cannot see any white lesions to apply cream, only redness. I am seriously considering finding a private derm or gyni but cant decide which. can anyone advise please.

      I am glad to say I am not suffering to the extent you are but I have been feeling so sore and like you didnt want to wear underwear. I think things are slightly better but I am still worried about putting the steroid cream willy nilly down there without knowing if its going in the right place. when I had this problem before it was very obvious where the LP was as there were white patches and the dermatologist was adamant that i should look to put cream on only those patches. I am still unsure whether to seek the advice of a private Dermatologist. what a nasty condition this is and worse still it is one that can never be cured.
