Hydrocolloid bandages. You can get a box of ten 4x4 bandages. They absorb oil, pus, grease and other fluids and become a scab to the wound so it doesn't scab over and stop draining.

I want to thank you for posting the pain spray. I found one that is also antibacterial. After using it for a few days it has worked wonders. It cut down on the smell and irritation tremendously, in fact it looks like I might be healing a little. Found this at Frys Food for $7.

This stuff
https://www.amazon.com/Ichthammol-Ointment-Drawing-Salve-Pharmaceutical/dp/B014MRR7NY/ref=sr_1_1_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1474573899&sr=8-1&keywords=boil%2Bcream&th=1
Was having issues while visiting my grandmother and she pulled this stuff out. Stuff was older than me (40s) but damn if it didn't work.
I did get this and it works but not as fast as the old stuff she gave me.
One of the frustrating things about HS for me is that it seems related to other issues in my body. I see a dermatologist for HS but if it’s caused by hormones then my dermatologist is only a temporary solution. Finding the solution to hormone imbalance is something you probably will have to do separately.
Being overweight messes with your hormones. Losing weight messes with your hormones because estrogen is stored in fat, so when you lose fat the estrogen has to be processed. Once you are at a healthy weight and stop losing fat your hormones will settle. They may be balanced or not. You won’t know until you get there.
I recommend reading Taking Charge of your Fertility. It’s about female reproductive systems and the involved hormones. Many women use it to get pregnant but it’s also great for learning and understanding what hormones do to your body. Once you understand that you’ll know if your hormones are doing what they are supposed to do. If they are not you should bring it up with a gynecologist and push for a referral to an endocrinologist.
Birth control to treat irregular periods is a temporary solution. You are not fixing the problem you are putting a band aid on it.
It is unhealthy to go too long without a period. The uterine lining is meant to be shed. When that does not happen the cells that sit there too long may reproduce and cause cancer. Birth control forces a period. You can also get a prescription to force a period that is not birth control. My doctor told me 3 months was the longest I should go without forcing a period if it’s not happening naturally.
Right now weight loss seems to be reducing your HS symptoms. Losing weight might put you into remission. This could be your long term solution. If I were you I would continue that path. BC might help or it might make it worse. You don’t want to be on it anyway.
i got mine in china town in Philly. here is an amazon link. it's sold as a spice for like 5 bucks.
never tried it on the groin, but i imagine it would still work, as it's the same kind of sore or lesion or whatever you wanna call it. my groin usually doesn't flare up as bad as my pits, so i never tried it. hope it helps.
