A member asked:

I have a symmetrical white spot on my glans clitoris. it is not shiny and does not hurt or itch. it is sharply defined though. could this be a sign of lichen sclerosis?

If this the only lesion that makes you think of lichen sclerosis, it probably is not that. You may watch and wait, if more lesions appear, see a doctor. Get HPV vaccine. Wish you good health! Safe sex: https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/health/wellness-and-prevention/safer-sex-guidelines
