Changed my name for obvious reasons.
LOng story but have been sore down there for weeks. Treated for thrush, bacterial infection (no improvement on either)today doctor diagnosed Lichen Sclerosis.
She was a very young doctor and clearly wasn't quite sure whether it was or not(she diagnosed on the basis of the previous more experienced doctor putting it on my notes as a possible explanation for what might be wrong)
She consulted her medical books then gave me a Hydrocortisone cream of 1% and told me to apply it twice a day. No other advice - because I think she wasn't sure what advice to give.
Anyone suffered from this or seen a dermatologist/gynae about it and know more. Is 1% right amount - too much, too little. I feel I'm in inexperienced hands at the moment. These are my blooming bits, we're talking about and I don't want them to be mismanaged!
