Re: Treatment for lichen sclerosus et atrophicusFrom: Lynn D. Montgomery (apgar10@ionet.net)Thu May 2 10:14:12 1996
> >One of my patients has lichen sclerosus et atrophicus >( vulvar dystrophy, known previously >as kraurosis vulvae). > Try 1% testosterone in a petrolatum base. Apply daily (usually at bedtime) for two to three months. Then you may be able to decrease the frequency of application. Caution the patient that it may take the 2-3 months before she gets significant symptomatic relief. No significant side effects from the testosterone except an occasional increase in libido.

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.
