Where to Rub the Clob

I'm sure this has been discussed but where exactly do we rub the steroid?

I have been rubbing in between the minora and mijora where the fusing is occuring and on the clitoris.

Do we also rub it back by the anus and inside the minora on the soft tissue?  That would get on the uretha and vagina.  

Thank you.

    Dont'know about everyone else but I just put the dermavate all over, never heard of or been prescribed clob and dont even know what that is. My gyn said to use the balneum cream as much as I want. Don't know about the fusing either. Does everything stick together and when everyone speaks about losing their bits where does it go ????

      Glyn, Demovate is the brand name for clobetasol. There are many discussions in this forum, lots talking about atrophy and fusing. It's scarring or adhesions – raw, sticky flared-up skin sticks to itself and heals together. Thids is why we do everything we talk about here to avoid being flared up. Scroll up and click on lichen sclerosus, then browse topics. There are many pages of topics. Scroll to the bottom of the topics and click next page.

    Sara, 

    I used Clob last year to get rid of some of the white plaques of skin on the inside on my labia minora, and I was fortunate enough that it all disappeared quite quickly.  For a while, even though my Vjay looked perfectly fine, with no cuts, sores, etc I still applied the Clob, usually  twice a week because I was told that this was good maintenance.  However, I don't believe that is necessary now, I have changed my views on this, and so I think that if your Vjay looks and feels absolutely fine, then the best course of treatment is to always spray with a little water (with an added pinch of bicarbonate of soda)  after using the bathroom, dry well, and apply something like coconut oil or Emu oil.   I think that is the best plan of action for maintenance, and since sticking to this routine I have had no more problems with fusing.   For women that have obvious signs of LS then Clob is the recommended approach.

    I don't  believe that Lichen Schlerosus gets worse for everyone, but I do think that some women have the disease far worse than others, that's all.
