Since two days or so I've had this itch now in my genital area. There is a little white patch of skin on my vulvae and I've got no clue what it could be... You should probably know that I am extremely young (teenager), which is very uncommon for lichen sclerosus, but there is really nothing else that looks similar to it. Please, help me. I would appreciate anything, because I don't wanna seek a doctor, because of my parents (it is a long story).image

      No it doesn't and I am really scared, because it itches a lot.

      Hard to say.. they could just be normal. I would try treating it with yeast medicine and if the itching persist see a doctor. I dont know your sexual history and Im not sure what country you live in but in the USA there are plenty of places you can go where they will not tell your parents.
