Lichen Sclerosus RxFrom: Hellriegel, John (jhellrie@ubmedd.buffalo.edu)Fri May 17 21:03:29 1996
Subject: Re: Treatment for lichen sclerosus et atrophicus "I have been reading about the number of people still using Tesosterone cream and am very suprised. Dermatologists long ago gave this up and are probably laughing at us. I think most gyn's I talk with have switched to Temovate 0.05% ointment or cream up to tid and when sx's gone to maintain on Valisone. William Cely MD" I have had several patient's with biopsy proven lichen sclerosus who were Temovate failures in that they experienced greater symptomatic relief with 2% testosterone in Eucerin cream. I now mix and match to meet the patient's needs. The following seems to work: Temovate for initial Rx. Follow-up with testosterone qod, biweekly, or PRN. John Hellriegel jhellrie@ubmedd.buffalo. edu

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.
