Hi, I read that people with LS may have lower levels of vitamin B, E and zinc. I went to cvs and bought  B and E in liquid form. I put them both in one bottle and every morning and every night I rub it all over down there. And i take a zinc pill evey morning with breakfast. I AM SO HAPPY 

I am 28 and have had LS for 5 mths now. 2 weeks ago I had sex with my hubby (and it was quick about 10min) and cried afterwords because I ripped and was bleeding. So the next morning I went out and bought all the vitamins I stated above....and last night I had sex for 45 min and it was great smile I know we are all different in this, but it worked for me. Try it!!! Has anyone else done this.

      Hi. I'm also 28. I'm still doing this and feeling really good. I'm also changing my diet as it seems to have helped people. Good luck

    lisa thank you. I was diagnosed with lichen sclerous and I use the clobetasol propionate cream (vagina) it helps a little. I am making an appointment to go to my dermatologist for a second opinion. I am having a rough time with the lichen sclerosus with the itching and redness , pain. I am starting a low oxalate diet or try to. I read up on high oxalate diet can cause your lichen sclerosus to flare. I also order pure Emu oil which is high in vitamin E. I just started using that as a moisturizer and for the itching. it has been only one day using the Emu oil. I am stopping all my vitamins because some of them might be high in oxalates. I take a lot of individual vitamins. But I am going back to take vitamins D3, B12 , Zinc and maybe Ester-C. I got to research Ester-C to see if it causes flare-ups. in addition to lichen sclerous I have Roseace (face) which that is under control, so far. any other suggestions. lichen sclerosus disease is horrible. I just down feel good and sometimes feels like a low grade fever. I cannot sleep at night because of the continuous itching. thanks again Rhonda
