What factors cause vulvar leukoplakia?

Patient's question:

At first, I didn't feel anything uncomfortable, but recently, during intimacy with my husband, I've found it very dry, and I've also been constantly feeling itchy externally. After a check-up, they said it's leukoplakia of the vulva. I'm not very familiar with this condition. Could you please tell me: what factors contribute to the formation of leukoplakia of the vulva?

Doctor's answer:

Hello; Vulvar leukoplakia refers to tissue degeneration and changes in pigmentation in the skin and mucous membranes of various parts above the female vulva caused by nutritional disorders. The typical symptoms of vulvar leukoplakia are white skin on the vulva, vulvar itching, and vulvar burning pain. In terms of treatment, oral traditional Chinese medicine is used to regulate internal balance, support the body's fundamental health, adjust endocrine disorders, and enhance the immune function of the body. For vulvar leukoplakia patients, in addition to symptomatic treatment, it is also necessary to pay attention to personal care, such as paying more attention to hygiene in the private area and avoiding sexual activity during medication. Finally, it is advised that female patients must undergo regular follow-up examinations!
