hi all

i was diagnosed dec 2017 my symptoms started in the jan before after i had my son. i started using dermovate and kept to my instructions of use for around 6 months, since then i have stopped using my cream and had no further symptoms my vagina looks normal.

am i being crazy in thinking that it could be a single life flare up or has anyone else had this?

thank you in advance x

    Hi Capper,

    firstly how were you diagnosed? Biopsy or sight? The regime I understand is every day dermovate tailing off gradually and then if symptoms have gone to use once per week for maintenance. As I understand this is a life complaint which will have times of remission and times of flares but maintenance use of steroid is vital. Great that you are symptomless at the moment but I would consult with your medic as to maintenance use of steroid.

    Hope this helps.
