Patient's question:
I am not married yet. Recently, I went for a physical examination and was told that I have leukoplakia of the vulva. Is this disease serious? Will it affect my future pregnancy? Please ask: What is the cost of follow-up after leukoplakia surgery?Doctor's answer:
The characteristics of vulvar leukoplakia include: severe itching of the vulva, sometimes accompanied by burning or pain. The affected skin becomes rough and thickens like moss, with scratches and sometimes recurrent fissures and ulcers. It directly affects urination and sexual life, and the level of suffering is difficult to describe. It is recommended to visit a local hospital for specific examination and then confirm the treatment plan. It is necessary to choose a regular hospital, as the medications required may differ, so the treatment costs are not entirely the same. Vulvar leukoplakia is a gynecological disease that is prone to recurrence. During medication, women need to pay attention to their own care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is advised that patients avoid sexual activity during treatment and maintain good hygiene. Finally, we wish female patients a speedy recovery!
