I just thought I would send you a little update. I had a vulvar biopsy done earlier this year. It came back as not being lichen planus. The doctor then said it was probably allergic dermatitis. He said that I could be reacting to the PROPYLENE GLYCOL that is in the creams I had used to treat yeast and strep B and is also in cortisone creams. I have found that if I avoid propylene glycol and soaps with perfume I do ok. Maybe this information can be of help to others.

Something you can deal with!  That's good news that it's not lichen planus, for sure.  Thanks for posting back about how things are going!
