    Hi sorry you are suffering as well from this horrible condition, i have many patches over my body, mainly on the trunk of my, but also at the tops of both legs, Down below i dont get a lot of itching like some people but split and get sore and a lot of fusing. Sadly none of the creams etc seem to help the paches on other parts of the body, i have tried many .

      vicky, i have not had any confirmation that i have L.S.. and have not put anything on these patches.. how do u know that you have LS? did your dr say that the patches are related to LS.. the only symptom i have is a very small bump on the labia and and the labia itches on and off.. i use clob on that and it takes the itch away but always returns..the white patches do not itch and only know there r ther by sight.. Maybe u can enlighten me about this. the itch started about 2 years ago when i was diagonised with Hashimotos and comes and goes...thanks for a reply.. hope you get better

      Hi Kathy, i went to my gp with a white patch of skin under my breast at first .he referred me to a dermatologest who knew straight away that it was LS. Hopefully for you it wont spread like it has done for me, every one is different and LS seems to affect different people in different ways.

    My Gyn/OB said that the Psorasis I have on my feet is associated to LS. Has to do with your Autoimmune system.
