Ladies,

i came across the the following article on signs and symptoms of vulva LS. Puts into perspective my status when I compare to what’s in the video. Sorry no links. If you can’t find it pm me.

Take a look at the following: bsccp organisation on net and search for the lichens of the vulva. You will see a 25 minute video that I found gave me a good idea of what the vulva looks like and different impact of LS and shrinkage.

    Thank you Samantha for sharing the info on the video. They appear to be severe cases and my heart goes out to these women. It was very informative.

    Ladies, the idea behind this post was to help put your own LS into perspective. This is what helps me when I look at myself and then these more extreme cases. Then I can assess visually how far my LS is progressing 😊

    Thank you so much for this! I was only diagnosed yesterday, however have suspected LS for the past year.  Nevertheless I’ve been on/off in tears since last week after noticing that yes, my inner labia are definitely shrinking.  This video has helped me put things in perspective and made me more determined to get on top of this horrible condition!

    Thanks for posting the info on the video. It was excellent! I'm new here, but IMHO it should be pinned to the the top of the forum (don't know how that's done, but I've seen it in other site's forums). I actually watched the whole thing a couple weeks ago after reading this thread, and didn't write down the link thinking I'd easily be able to find i again in my browser history....and then couldn't and had to start searching for this thread again. Thanks again.
