Is it OK to put hydrocortisone on my clitoris
Posted , 9 users are following.
I wonder if someone could advise me? I was diagnosed with LS about 8 months ago. It presented as sort of a white spot initially. It's been about 4 years now. My treatment is hydrocortisone and I have been battling to use it since it makes my vagina lips puffy and sore.
I am, after reading a lot here and watching the video here, trying to be better with my treatment. Although I suspect now, on day 3 my vulva will puff again.
Here is my question.
I noticed today that there is white tissue on the right hand side of my clitoris and have noticed loss of sensation in my clitoris. The only other signs I feel I have is the white spot which is still there. Can I put the hydrocortisone cream on my clitoris. I admit I am scared it may burn the heck out of me?
After reading here, I am going to perhaps ask my Doctor to give me Dermovate? Since it might not cause the puffy vulva thing. I am really stressed as I feel I have not looked after my LS very well. Since really I am clueless. I am also going through bad perimenopause symtoms and this is making my anxiety even worse.

The doc I went to prescribed me one too but, it's stronger and I'm not sure what all is in prescription versions
so in own opinion, I'd rather buy one that I know is a bit gentler with ingredients that are listed. If you would like to pm me, I can give you the brand I use but I'm in the states, not sure if they would have this same product where you live.
Poke around these forums too, a wealth of info on other helpful things. There's a game here that has been coming up with some wonderful info. Under the forums, look for vulva, vaginal, etc. topics and you'll find some fabulous articles <3 i="" hope="" this="" helps="">3 ><3 >3 >

If you go to the top of the page and click on LS then navigate your way to the starter forum there is tons of info' on this for you. There is also a webinair by a Doctor explaining it. This might put your mind at rest.
I was also scared, but more so when I did not know what was wrong with me. I was convinced it was cancer of some sort. At least with LS I know I can get my symptoms under control and that is not too scary to me. Perhaps the Gynea will just take a punch biopsy and examine you internally to make sure the diagnosis was correct. I didn't have the punch biopsy (no idea why).
Try not to worry, I am such a worrisome person but as I said earlier this can be managed and you will find some comfort here as well as using certain ointments and lotions to bring you physical comfort down there too. x
