Patient's question:
I am not married yet. Recently, I went for a physical examination and was told I have leukoplakia of the vulva. Is this condition serious? Will it affect my future ability to get pregnant? Please ask: What should I do after being diagnosed with leukoplakia of the vulva?Doctor's answer:
During daily life and treatment, it is important to maintain the cleanliness and dryness of the external genital skin, avoid allergic and spicy foods, alcohol, and do not frequently use soap, cleansers, or medications to wash the external genital area, as well as wearing loose cotton underwear. It is recommended that hydrocortisone cream can be used for the treatment of leukoplakia of the external genitalia. If medication is ineffective, physical therapy or surgical treatment can be considered. In daily life, it is advisable to enhance nutrition, relax your mind, and wish you good health. The recurrence of leukoplakia of the external genitalia severely harms women's health, and patients need to pay attention to follow-up examinations after menstruation, maintain a light diet, and avoid spicy foods. Finally, it is hoped that female patients can receive standardized treatment.
