re lichen sclerosis
Just wondering if any one has much luck in treating lichen sclerosis of vagina labia and perenium area in post menopausal women.
What constitutions you found were most susceptible. What remedies were useful – miasmatic remedies used as part of treatments etc and what rubrics were useful. Cases you have had that were successful? Any adjunct therapies you used. Were you able to treat over the use of steroid creams.
Of course each case is different and needs to be taken homeopathically but just trying to gather as much info as I can

Re: re lichen sclerosis
Hello Pauline,
Had a case years ago that responds to Aur Mur Nat. Cannot say it resolved it but improved it considerably.
Do you have atrophy with it. Happy to hear results others had.

Hi Pauline,
Several sites mentioned low estrogen/thyroid might be a contributing factor.

Re: re lichen sclerosis
I had only one patient with this condition years ago, and she didn't even mention the lichen sclerosis until our second session! Skin rubrics were not particularly helpful, because they'd invariably bring up remedies like Petro. which didn't really address her constitution.
The remedy that helped her most was Borax (extreme sensitivity to loud noise), but it didn't hold. Typically, she would either have great improvement, then regress, or she'd claim no improvement when there actually had been some. It grew wearing on both of us.
I believe RefW lists Calc-fl. for lichen sclerosis, but nothing in homeopathy is that specific.
Peace,
Dale

Re: re lichen sclerosis
I have only "I was taught" for this, but -- perhaps if you can identify I remedy that really suits her well overall, mental/emotional, generals, etc., it would help the skin condition even if not specifically mentioned for it? Mental/emotions; habitual or common reactions; and general symptoms being more "leading" than local or skin symptoms. "I was taught" that this can work...
Re steroid creams, in a Sheilagh Creasy talk years back, she said that an important thing, if the patient "must" use them, is that there be *some* area left un-treated by the cream, for the body to use as an "escape valve" for the skin condition; not to be *entirely* suppressing its expression.

Re: re lichen sclerosis
Could you find a cause for it...the Merck Manual quotes toxicity by metals, some antibiotics, etc,....like almost every skin problem what we see is a symptom, a consequence of something else, deeper...

Re: re lichen sclerosis
Agreed, but this (lichen sclerosis) could also be regarded as the best
thing an ('uneducated') immune system can do to *prevent* this from
going deeper.
It seems this has got to do with hormonal changes (*deep stuff*) in
persons who are unable to deal with, or cannot handle/understand/be in
peace with what is happening on this 'deep stuff' level.
Or something like this.
Maybe remedies should fit this as a general picture.

Re: re lichen sclerosis
Mohinder Singh Jus wrote in one of his books "love your skin eruption,
it is keeping you alive"...but then if it is destroying your life
because of its symptoms, it is worth digging deeper, isn't it?

Re: re lichen sclerosis
It's always worth digging deeper, but if (one feels) a skin eruption is
destroying one's life, I feel there's some 'work' to be done.

Re: re lichen sclerosis
I do not get the difference between digging deeper and work to be
done....isn't it the same concept with different words?
