Any Medication For Lichen Schlerosis During Pregnancy?
Hi I'm 8 weeks pregnant and I have lichen schlerosis which has really flared up after a bout of thrush. Is there any treatment/ ointment I could apply which will be okay and not affect my baby. I am in agony so any advice would be extremely useful. Thank you Samantha
Hi,thanks for your question, during preganancy due to hormone changes, some women notice an improvement. Lichen Sclerosus will not harm the baby. there is no cure for lichen sclerosus but with proper treatment you can control the symptoms and keep them from getting worse. i would suggest you to see gyneacologist.
