"Compelling evidence" that BXO is caused by urine

As those who have read a few of my posts will know, I'm a firm believer that BXO/LS is caused by urine. I've already cited a couple of medical studies or articles supporting this theory, and today I found another. In the Journal of of the American Academy of Dermatology (Volume 66, Issue 4, Supplement 1, April 2012) there is a short article by Tang Ngee Shim and Christopher Bunker, of the Department of Dermatology, London suggesting "compelling evidence that male genital lichen sclerosus (MGLSc) is caused by exposure to urine". Rather than select pieces of it, I will just reproduce the entire article: "There is compelling evidence that male genital lichen sclerosus (MGLSc) is caused by exposure to urine. MGLSc is an acquired cutaneous disease of uncertain etiology that results in sexual dysfunction and urologic morbidity and carries a risk of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the penis (2-12.5%).

What do you all think about an eBook?

I'm still here, and as those who comment will know, I still come here quite often. I love reading all your comments and chiming in with my two cents where I can.

I'm a recovered BXO sufferer, who has overcome this disease mostly on his own, and using over-the-counter products and habit changes. The natural treatment of BXO is something that potentially belongs in an eBook of some kind. I realise that it's quite a rare disease in men so this ebook wouldn't exactly become a #1 best seller. However, this blog has a few flaws. First, there are a LOT of pages. It would take someone a very long time to sift through them all. And the context of where they are at in the recovery may not be the same as the point I was at in the post they read. Secondly, like a scientist (I'm not actually a scientist) I spent my time proving myself wrong when writing this blog.
