Guest guest Posted January 26, 2008 Report Share Posted January 26, 2008 Ivy, I don't know if there's a " standard treatment " for LP. It's much like LS - different things work for different people. But I know alot of doctors will prescribe clob. first thing. That's what mine did. But it didn't work for me at all. Only things worked for me were the topical hormones. They also tried a vaginal cream with an antibiotic and a steroid to reduce inflammation. Didn't hurt but not sure how much it helped. Some people try nerve meds like lyrica for the associated nerve pain. It really depends on your case. Some people are very severe and end up taking immunosuppressants like cyclosporine to keep it under control. Thank God I'm not at that point! Let me know if I can answer any more questions for you!
