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? How much does it usually cost to check for leukoplakia of the vulva?Doctor's answer:
Hello, leukoplakia of the vulva is a disease caused by nutritional disorders of the vulvar skin and mucosa, leading to local tissue degeneration and loss of pigmentation. It is a condition where the skin and mucosa become white, rough, or swollen, and it may recur. It is recommended that you maintain cleanliness and dryness, stop using soap and other irritating drugs for washing, avoid spicy and irritating foods, topical corticosteroid creams, or surgical treatment. The recurrence of vulvar leukoplakia severely affects women's health, and patients should avoid sexual activity during treatment and pay attention to personal hygiene. Finally, we hope that female patients can receive professional treatment.
