Hello, i had posted last year about testosterone pellets ( with a small amount of estrogen) implanted for slow release, and its impact on the LS. i promised id update you all on it. I wasn't having too much discomfort and seemed to be unfusing while it was in effect. When it wore off, it seemed to return via itching and more white skin and fusing on the lower edge of the vaginal opening especially.

My Naturopath is now doing PLATELET RICH PLASMA injections and says he's having great success. just thought I'd update you on this, as several people had questions. Now that i just got the new pellet, I will let you know what happens this time.

    I hope it helps! I recently tried topical testosterone and it seemed to heal the skin quite a bit. Though the best was topical estrogen cream and inserting it too, along with the estrogen ring. That worked great.Are you going to try the plasma? If so please let us know how that goes. Thanks and take care!

      thank you.... i tried the PRP in the past and i think it helped, but im probably going to try again soon. the first time i got an infection, and the ND (not my current) didnt want to do the second course. ive been using an antibacterial to try to avoid that again.
