Posted , 6 users are following.

I am 48  I have had lichin since about 40.  I have 5 autoimmune disorders. 1st, find out which other ones you have...you never have just one autoimmune disorder. I have arthritis, hashimitos, fibromayalgia, lichen sclerosis, and intercystial cystitis.

I have a great ob gyn.  I am using clobestesol on the affected areas and got 75% improvement.  Now I have the itching, cant orgasm, redness, bleeding.  Now I am using a compounded testosterone dhea estrogen compound, haven'tgone back to doctor yet but I have more creams then you can imagine.  clobetesol is the best though. I had a hysterectomy 7 years ago. I had two c sections.  I still have sex at least once a week but it is becoming harder and harder. Thank god my husband needs viagra so we are both screwed up  smile.  keep going to doctor.  In US, I probably have better healthcare, it is not socialized and I am government employee with good coverage.  they do as many tests as needed, biopsies, cell scrapes sent to lab.  Her name is Cinde ordelheide, she is a NP, and is the best. She recommended vibrators, she has me on testosterone compound liquid, estrogen compound, clobetesol, and vivelle dot hormone patches.  get your hormones checked too!!
