There is a lot of information on what to apply but not much on how to avoid or simply how to wash

de-toxing is part of the healing challenge in this and many other conditions, sauna, infra red, and soaking in epsom salts all have great value and help with reversal.
heat locally is also of great benefit and is used (to the whole body too) as an anti cancer treatment to promote the body's own healing...by raising the body temp to achieve therapeutic hyperthermia to facilitate more efficient enzyme and lymphocyte activity which will draw away toxins to the (often over loaded) liver for excretion. liver flushes such as are also helpful to support de-toxification. The mucous membranes generally help with excretion but we have a clog up situation going on. to help with dispersal i apply the hotest spray of hot water that i can stand in the shower on the basis of two priciples :
1/ like treating like... ie heat and redness being met with the subduing force of a strong spray of really hot water...increased in volume and heat strength by degrees ....until the hotest possible spray is focused on the area. I get fab relief from the itch on the odd occasion that an itch re-appears then I do this daily which is no real inconvenience and i find the benefit lasts all day and night and i repeat the next morning...but it could be done twice a day to really get things moving. Try it! Start with a gentle cool spray and increase volume til comfortable and tolerable then increase the heat slowly...you'll find you can then increase the volume further and that the force and the heat really get in there and give the irritation a vigorous going over until it defeated and the area feels calm and settled. The stimulation is very healing and is just whats needed. Blood flow needs to be increased. Those white patches are kind of the equivalent of gangrene to the limb ...withering and death results. Vulva deterioration and atrophy follow the neglected vulva. Got to get blood moving in the area. Visualisation helps too of the itch being defeated....til the anger subsides due to being overwhelmed by a stronger yet helpful benevolent force...does this make sense?
2/ dispersal whereby some of the toxins will then be able to escape through the delicate membrane...where they have accumulated in anticipation of excretion locally (causing inflammation which in natural health terms is not a bad thing ...unless repressed by allopathic medecine) due to the increased porousity that heat provides. In nature inflammation is the first stage of the healing process. It is resolved either by a boil which then extrudes to the exterior..IF sufficient heat is either, applied, or, is allowed to accumulate locally through bodily heat raising (so often eroneously suppressed by western medecine) OR white cells and phagocytes convey the accumulations to the liver for de-tox and discharge via the urinary system.
Hope this helps!

Both are beneficial its a multi stranded programme. In fact I've been following a friend who cured herself of LS and she's written a book which I'm eagerly awaiting and will pass on details about as soon as I get them myself. In addition to de-toxing, supplementation and an appropriate diet the bathing and local hot sprays all activate the healing response.
I've got to get out and get some epsom salts myself...must check out a source ...maybe on-line or perhaps from a local health food store. Are you in the UK?
Are you still anxious to put something on your delicate area?

pro-biotics are also vital to restore gut flora and fauna...you can get quite a strong reaction as 'die off' takes place and the bad bacteria try to fight back as they die!

you're ok with veg..unless you're doing the low carb start? Which protocol are you following?
It may help to detail everything you've done and eaten so you can keep track of what is working since you move through levels. Just to follow can you list your steps so far.
Is this an initial change from steroids? I'll look back at your history but can you fill me in xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

great you're monitoring your wee is that using a labstix? They're very useful.
well done anyway delighted to hear. any recipes you'd suggest? Just to follow you've quit grains and dairy and are doing veg with limited fruit? way to go!!!!!!!!!!! might help to keep a record of what you add in ...so you can observe any reactions and whether you need to quit those things. I'm reacting to dairy at the mo but hope to go back to dairy yoghurt organic full fat of course but if i do it'll be after finding a source of unpasteurised. xxxxxxxxx
