Patient's question:
Recently, I've been feeling a bit itchy down there, and it seems the color has changed too, a bit whitish. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they said it's leukoplakia of the vulva. Could you please tell me what I should eat in the early stages of leukoplakia?Doctor's answer:
The main symptom of vulvar leukoplakia is vulvar itching, especially at night, which is particularly severe. It greatly interferes with the patient's life and training, making the treatment of vulvar leukoplakia necessary. At the same time, dietary adjustments should not be overlooked during treatment.(1) It is advisable to consume as many foods rich in vitamins as possible. The treatment of vulvar leukoplakia primarily involves stabilizing anemia, excessive stomach acid, and unhealthy dietary habits. Foods with anti-vulvar tumor and leukoplakia effects should be eaten more, such as sesame, almonds, wheat, barley, calabash, black-bone chicken, cuttlefish, black-tailed snake, pig pancreas, chrysanthemum, Chinese plum, peach, lychee, purslane, chicken blood, eel, abalone, crab, horseshoe crab, sardine, clam, and hawksbill turtle.
