    Lichen sclerosus needs diagnosis, control, and long-term follow-up

    Lichen sclerosus is a chronic inflammatory skin condition that most often affects the vulva. It can cause itching, tearing, burning, fissures, and pain with intercourse, exercise, or even routine hygiene.

    Because the condition can scar tissue and carries a small but important cancer-surveillance concern, treatment should stay anchored in diagnosis, steroid therapy when indicated, and regular follow-up rather than relying on elective procedures alone.

    How the O-Shot may be considered in adjunct care

    The O-Shot uses platelet-rich plasma prepared from your own blood. PRP contains growth factors that may support tissue repair, collagen remodeling, and local circulation in targeted treatment areas. For some patients with persistent tissue fragility, dryness, or sensitivity despite standard care, PRP may be discussed as an adjunct treatment. It does not replace high-potency topical steroid therapy, biopsy when needed, or monitoring for disease progression. A careful consultation should confirm that your diagnosis is established, symptoms are being medically managed, and expectations around PRP remain conservative.

    What to expect if you discuss the O-Shot for lichen sclerosus

    1Confirm diagnosis and current treatment

    Before discussing PRP, your clinician should understand how lichen sclerosus was diagnosed, what steroid regimen you use, and whether any areas need biopsy or specialist follow-up.

    2Review whether symptoms are tissue-related

    The O-Shot is usually considered only when dryness, micro-tearing, or tissue fragility remain part of the problem despite standard care and good follow-up.

    3In-office PRP treatment if appropriate

    If you are a candidate, a blood draw is processed into PRP and injected into targeted tissues in an office visit with topical numbing for comfort.

    4Continue surveillance and maintenance care

    Even if PRP is added, ongoing steroid therapy, vulvar skin care, and regular follow-up remain essential parts of managing lichen sclerosus over time.
