Patient's question:
At first, I didn't feel anything uncomfortable, but recently, during intimacy with my husband, I've found it quite dry, and I've also been experiencing constant itching in the outer vaginal area. After a check-up, it was diagnosed as leukoplakia of the vulva. I'm not very familiar with this condition. Could you please tell me what the common treatment methods for leukoplakia of the vulva are?Doctor's answer:
Hello, active treatment can be cured. Medications: topical hormone drugs, local anesthesia, anaerobic rods, and traditional Chinese medicine treatment. Physical therapy: microwave therapy, carbon dioxide laser, helium-neon laser, BOM light, high-frequency electric knife, local electrocautery, and liquid nitrogen local cryotherapy, etc. Surgical treatment: simple vulvectomy, split skin grafting vulvectomy. The recurrence of vulvar leukoplakia severely threatens women's health, and patients need to pay attention to maintaining vulvar cleanliness in daily life and preventing sexual activity. Finally, we hope that female patients can receive effective treatment.
