Lichen SclerosisFrom: Karen Lee (karen@karenlee.org)Wed Nov 30 13:49:37 2005
Help... All the literature that I have read states that itching is the primary Sx of LS and that has been my experience too. I have a patient with the appearance of LS...pallor, thin tissue, interlabial agglutination...but her only Sx is pain when urine or water touches this area, which in her case is perineum and perianal. Are most of you using clobetasol? Anyone still using testosterone proprianate in petrolatum? Do you think one might be better than the other considering her Sx? Bx report is not back, but with 30 years of experience I'd bet my power exam table it's LS.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
