I took the study to my doctor and told her that I wanted to try it, and she agreed. I used the
topical steroid for one month. We used clobetasol
cream, which is up to 600x stronger than over the counter hydrocortisone cream, just to give you perspective on how strong it is. We tried applying it twice a day every other day. Unfortunately, I started using it at a time when it was hard to tell whether or not it was helping.
