Lichen Sclerosus-Prone Skin

Understanding your skin

What Is Lichen Sclerosus?

Lichen sclerosus is a chronic, currently incurable skin condition, most common in postmenopausal women, that causes thinning, white, fragile patches of skin, usually on the genitals, and can lead to scarring or a higher cancer risk if untreated. Topical corticosteroids are the standard first-line treatment and, when used correctly, are considered safe and effective in the long term. Many patients nonetheless worry about steroid side effects like skin thinning, and this worry is part of why patients often look for gentle, non-medicated comfort products to use alongside their prescribed care.

The proof is in the reviews.

Emu Joy products are formulated to support comfort and hydration for delicate, sensitive skin. They are not intended to diagnose, treat, or cure lichen sclerosus. If you have been diagnosed with lichen sclerosus, we recommend working with your healthcare professional to determine the care plan that's right for you.

Got Questions?  We have answers.

Where should I start if I'm new to Emu Joy?

Many customers begin with Pure Emu Oil as the foundation of their routine, then add Emu Oil Soap for a gentle cleanse and Soothe My Skin for extra comfort and hydration.

Why use multiple products instead of just one?

Each plays a different role: Pure Emu Oil replenishes everyday moisture, Emu Oil
Soap offers a gentle daily cleanse, Soothe My Skin adds a richer comfort layer, Relief
Balm is for areas that want extra attention, and the On The Go Stick makes it easy to
carry comfort with you.

Can I use these products every day, alongside my doctor's care?

Yes. These products are designed to work together as part of a gentle daily routine. Many people managing lichen sclerosus build a routine like this alongside guidance from their doctor — it's a good idea to check with your doctor before adding any new product to your routine, especially near sensitive areas.

How do I get the best results from this routine?
  • Cleanse gently with Emu Oil Soap to help avoid unnecessary dryness
  • Apply Pure Emu Oil while skin is still slightly damp for easier absorption
  • Layer Soothe My Skin over Pure Emu Oil for added comfort
  • Use Relief Balm on areas that want extra attention
  • Keep your On The Go Stick nearby for comfort throughout the day
  • A simple, consistent routine is often the best foundation for everyday comfort
Can I use these products on or near mucosal areas?

Because lichen sclerosus affects delicate, mucosal-adjacent skin, we recommend talking with your doctor about which products are appropriate for use in that area. These products are intended for use on body skin, and a patch test is always a good first step.

Is there a cure for lichen sclerosus?

There's currently no cure for lichen sclerosus. A doctor can help you find the right treatment plan, and many people also build a simple, gentle skin-care routine alongside their prescribed care.

Is this routine a treatment for lichen sclerosus?

No. This is a natural skin-care routine, not a medical treatment, and it isn't intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent lichen sclerosus. Please talk with your doctor about your treatment plan and any questions about your symptoms.

    It works!

    I have been using the products recommended for my lichen sclerosis for years.. I experienced no relief from my symptoms until I used the soap, “soothe my skin” cream and especially the emu oil. The emu oil is magic! I use it daily.

    Obviously, no photos will occur since LS affects the vulva area.

    EmuJoy Relief For LS

    I am very impressed with the relief I get from the LS kit from EmuJoy. I have been diagnosed with LS and am trying to live my life with this new diagnosis and the symptoms and effects it brings to daily life as a woman. The kit from EmuJoy provides so much relief for me between my medication days. I will buy this product for years to come, it’s the only over the counter product I’ve found that brings me relief. Thank you.
