Great Book!
I bought this for a dear friend who recently found out she suffers from Lichen Sclerosus. She found it very helpful and informative. Helped her gain understanding and gave her different options to try. She is very appreciative of this book.

Highly recommended if you’re experiencing Lichen Sclerosus!
As I woman and a physician I am truly impressed with this book . It walks through the journey of the severity of this disease and its long term ramifications if not addressed. I love how the book offers a plethora of options for treatment both traditional and holistic . One treatment will not fit all women and this book highlights that . I would highly recommend this book to anyone dealing with this very personal issue .

Thorough, Thoightful, Educational, Easy read
A friend mentioned Lichen Sclerosis to me as a possible diagnosis because of some skin issues and painful intercourse experiences I had mentioned. I bought this book to learn more about the condition. I dislike reading medical books, but this one was different – very easy to read and understand. Most importantly, it offered possible solutions to treat and live with the condition. The real-life experiences add authenticity, but overall, it is a comprehensive education on all aspects of Lichen Sclerosus.

Lots of very useful information
I knew there some alternative treatments like stem cells. I appreciated the book laid out the cost of some of those treatments that seem to provide good results. Not sure I can afford them, but at least I know how much they cost.

Well structured & written account of Lichen Sclerosus
This book is excellent. Easily understood information about a complex topic for both men and women. Includes a chapter on coping with one’s sex life and sharing the solutions to the difficulties with one’s partner. Early expert treatment of this condition is key. Highly recommend.
