Hi,

Thank you for your query.

Labial adhesions can be removed without using steroid cream. It is a minor procedure. The application of steroid cream and its strength can be causing the discolouration that you are describing. I suggest that you stop using the cream and consult your doctor or gynaecologist who will clear the adhesions.

I hope I have answered your query to your satisfaction. Please feel free to revert back in case you need any clarifications or would like to share more facts.

Wishing your daughter an early recovery.
