Abstract

Vaginal pruritus, painful micturition and dyspareunia secondary to a large number of local or systemic disorders are common short term complaints in young to middle aged women. In minority of cases, when underlying cause is not appropriately diagnosed and managed, these symptoms become frustrating for patient as well as for physician. We present a young lady who suffered with above debilitating symptoms that significantly impacted her psycho-sexual life for two years until she was diagnosed as a case of erosive vulval lichen planus.
