Did you know that Lichen sclerosis used to be also called ‘kraurosis’ or ‘Breisky disease’?
The role of the contraceptive pill
According to this article, when it is found in younger women, it is often because they were negatively affected by hormonal contraceptives.
Sadly, this is not often spoken about in our circles, but it’s something I knew for long as a homeopath. The onset of the issue often correlates to past contraceptive use.
I find this to be particularly the case where there is a rapid loss of architecture.
Other relevant influences
Vulvar atrophy also relates to candida overgrowth issues, and candida is in turn related to heavy metal toxicity. So those three might need to be addressed (given that those are actually part of the root cause issue in each individual case).
Homeopathic remedies for atrophy
Homeopathy has specific remedies that help with atrophy and architectural changes where indicated:
- Folliculinum – often used where there is damage due to contraceptive side effects
- Cobaltum nitricum – heavy metal toxicity
- Candida alb. – hormone birth control is a common trigger for candida overgrowth
Do you suspect that your Lichen Sclerosis is the result of taking hormonal drugs or due to candida overgrowth? Together we can resolve it!
