10 Symptoms of Lichen Sclerosus
Symptom #10: Painful Sex
Sex is one of the most natural and most enjoyable experiences that we can take part in. Not only is it pleasurable, but it also helps to strengthen bonds between partners and is considered by many to be good for our mental health. Plus, of course, it serves a very practical purpose in that it allows us to reproduce.
For some people, though, even this simple pleasure is not so enjoyable. With sores and rashes affecting the genital area, sex can become quite painful for people with lichen sclerosus. It can be frustrating, embarrassing, and can also lead to relationship tension.
