Suffering scalp fungus and diagnosed with lichen planus

Posted By Taylor (St. petersburg, Florida) on 05/09/2012

Please help me. I have been suffering with a fungus on my scalp and have been to several dermatogolist for the past 15 years and to no avail. I now look like bozo the clown. I'm now a 52 year old female. This started back in 1999. Please help. I once had a beautiful head of hair and now have to wear wigs. I really have hair loss in the visual aspect like bozo the clown. The dermatogolist said it's Lichen Planus on my scalp. Lastly 2009, I've had steroid shots in the scalp which was very painful and years later now it's the worst. Other solutions they have used are 2003 fugoid tincture, don't think this was used very long, clobeta propionate topical, fluocinolone acetonide topical oil (apply for few hours then shampoo out), ketoconazole cream.

The symptons are itchy red scalp and hair loss. It started as a small pea size in center of head and now has spread in a larger circle. I have no other health problems are on any meds except cholestorol, but that is under control w good htl. 5'4 190 lbs, 1 ovary only. I take a multi vit daily, fish oil, hawthorne supplment, coq10, garlic three time a week. Please help me, Sir. I don't want to be bald. Happilly married of 28 years. Taylor, St.Petersburg, Fl.

Hi Taylor, I would suggest using UT (Urine Therapy) on your scalp. Simply collect the first mornings urine by passing the first bit and then collecting the midstream only. You can rinse your hair with this and leave it on for a good hour or more. Then rinse out with conditioner. It has no odour and is wonderful for hair and scalp conditions. I was losing my hair due to a fungal infection. I lived with this condition for over 4 years and tried everything. Spent thousands $$$ trying to eradicate to no avail. I started researching UT via Earth Clinic and also Google. After the first application I noticed a huge difference and am no longer losing my hair. My hair feels soft and the red bumps have gone away. Hope this helps.
