Hi,
Although there's no cure for lichen sclerosus, there are treatments that can help. If you have it on your genitals, you should get it treated, even if you don't have symptoms.
When left untreated, it can lead to problems with sex or urination. Patches on other parts of the body usually go away with time.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
