... in the vaginal area? I had this condition 2yrs. ago and my dermatologist said it could pop up again or may not. She is no longer practicing and I no longer have Clobetasol. I would like to know if there is anything else that I could try before going to the expense of a Dr. Visit and also a prescription. I have been noticing the symptoms for about a week
Lichen Sclerosus - Is there any non-prescription medication that is safe to use on Lichen Sclerosis?

Agree, clob is the most effective, but I also use non-steroid products when I can. Have had good results with emu oil. Recently found a soothe my LS kit from Emu Joy that has several products that are helping with my flareups.

Nk1957 I was just reading and thinking about ordering the LS kit from Emu Joy. I was wondering if you all 4 of the products and how often. I plan to continue using my Clob cream as well but would love to use something else in between uses.

I've tried all 4 at various times. Depends on what's bothering me the most at the moment -- sometimes I'm in pain and other times its intense itching. The on the go stick has been a godsend for me if I'm not home and get itchy. Just run to the ladies room and put that on. Helps to calm down the itch for me. I try to use the emu oil daily in hopes that it will thicken my skin.

Thanks for reply to my question. I ordered the kit today. I really like the idea of the on the go stick.

Seriously, you need to see your doctor as Clobetasol is the best and most effective treatment.
Take care.
