In a lot of cases, vulval lichen sclerosus (LS) can be diagnosed by your doctor, based on an examination and a conversation about your symptoms. However, for a small number of people, the signs can be less clear, and a biopsy might be recommended to make sure LS is the right diagnosis.

We're putting together a calendar of events where we will be promoting the LS Guide this year. So exciting! Our first announcement is that we will be at the @bssvdinsta BSSVD Scientific Meeting in Liverpool in June. We'd love folks to come and say hi, and share any feedback on the Guide.

Health professionals (esp primary care) and people with vulval LS should know that yearly check-ups are recommended in the BAD guidance. More info on our website! lichensclerosusinfo.blogs.bristol.ac.uk/diagnosis-ch...
