Patient's question:
When taking a shower, I noticed that my private area had become very rough, and recently I've been feeling itchy all the time, especially when I'm at work, it's really embarrassing. Is my condition vulvar leukoplakia? Could you please tell me how to treat and improve vulvar leukoplakia?Doctor's answer:
Hello. This disease is difficult to treat. If there is severe itching in the inflamed area, you can use Chinese herbal decoction to steam and wash the external genital area 1-2 times a day, then dry it, and apply 2% compound testosterone ointment externally (this medication can be prepared by the patient under the guidance of a doctor). Gently rub it into the affected skin with your fingers. You can also take vitamin A orally, 250,000-500,000 units per day, and vitamin B6, 100 mg per day. During treatment, it is important to note that when the condition improves and itching subsides, you should not stop taking the medication abruptly to prevent recurrence. Instead, you can gradually increase the frequency of use, such as every other day or twice a week. Avoid spicy foods; prevent colds and all febrile diseases; and avoid hot springs.
