Can Vulvar Lichen Sclerosus be cured? A simple guide to the VLS

by

Vulvar Lichen Sclerosus (VLS) is a dermatological condition that affects the external genital area of women. One of the most frequent questions that arise upon diagnosis is whether there is a cure for this disease. In this article, we will explore the reality of Lichen Sclerosus in terms of cure, treatment approaches, how women can manage this condition over time and solve the big question: is Vulvar Lichen Sclerosus cured?

 

Nature of the VLS

VLS is characterized by its chronic nature, which means that it has no definitive cure. However, it is crucial to understand that a correct diagnosis, being well informed about medical advances and taking the right treatment will help you control your symptoms and improve your quality of life.

Currently, leading Lichen Sclerosus specialists advise to carry out these 3 treatment approaches in parallel.

 

The 3 approaches to Lichen Sclerosus treatment

1. Corticosteroid creams

Conventional treatment for VLS often involves the use of corticosteroid creams. These types of products can help reduce the symptoms of lichen planus such as reducing inflammation and relieving itching, but they do not provide a permanent cure.

2. Natural products

Products with natural ingredients can be used to help alleviate the symptoms produced by the disease. The Dermnix Natural Oil is created exclusively for Lichen Sclerosus as all of its components have been selected for their anti-inflammatory capabilities. For this reason, it improves the quality of life of women who use it.

Conclusions

Vulvar Lichen Sclerosus does not have a definitive cure since no treatment can assure, at this time, that it can completely eliminate the disease. However, with proper treatment and follow-up by a VLS physician, affected women can lead a full life and control their VLS symptoms. The key is to be well informed, follow up and apply your individualized treatment.
