All patients were treated with graduated topical fluorinated corticosteroid. Data were obtained from hospital records.

The remission rate was 93.8% in six months. The remission rate was non\u2010significantly higher in postmenopausal patients than that in their premenopausal counterpart (94.9% vs 93.0%, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> = 0.15). The disease recurred in 6.9% of patients. Of the patients that suffered recurrence 47.5% had persistent disease initially. The patients with following factors older ages (&gt;40 years), postmenopausal period had significantly higher recurrence rates.
