Hello everyone, First off I am 24 years old, I was diagnosed with Vulvar Lichen Sclerosus at 23 which was about two months ago. I had been suffering for maybe 6 months prior. I was lucky to have a OBGYN who knew what she was doing. I scheduled thinking I had some sort of progressed yeast infection or something, she was concerned when I pointed out the white spots that were forming and gave me a biopsy. I know many women can go years with being misdiagnosed so I am thankful for that. Unfortunately, the reality is still hard to deal with some days. I am on Clobetasol right now, once a day before bedtime. I seems to be helping with the symptoms. (some days not so much) I am hoping to eventually not need it at all. I think that there is a light at the end of the tunnel for me as well as all of you. I have started my journey of a COMPLETE lifestyle change, let me just say. I NEVER ate healthy, ever. Fried chicken, fast food, soda, you name it I was ingesting it. I started to look at my choices and reading up about nutrition, toxicity in our foods and reconsidered how I was treating my body. Up until this point I have never had any health issues other than ovarian cysts. So I couldn't figure out why this happened. I had my Thyroid tested, my immunity, CBC all cam back normal. I am going to be getting my estrogen and hormones checked also with my upcoming physical. BACK to my point. I believe this condition can be reversed. I have been experiencing changes in my body and I am set on continuing. I no longer eat processed foods, sugars, caffeine, most meat and dairy. I'm on a RAW organic diet, with lots of veggies and fruits. Organic vitamins and I will be cleansing my system to rid myself of deadly toxins that accumulate in the body from food, water and the environment. We don't stop and actually consider what we eat. I know I never did. Stay positive, eat healthy and work out! Your body wants to be healthy, we just aren't giving it what it needs to help us. Watch "Hungry for a Change" and "Forks over Knives" I have others on my list as well as books. I will be organizing a website for us. I want to start getting people on board for it. A better support group with up to date information, posts from sufferers as well as trying to get a research fund going. We don't have to be alone in the dark. Lets get progress going and I think in numbers, we can do anything. Good luck!
