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 was leukoplakia of the vulva. Could you please tell me what causes leukoplakia of the vulva?Doctor's answer:
Vaginal leukoplakia refers to malnutrition of the vaginal skin caused by various reasons. The main clinical manifestations include local hypopigmentation and whitening of the vagina, which may also be accompanied by symptoms such as vaginal itching or local thickening, swelling, and other signs and symptoms. If the expansion is severe, there may also be a possibility of malignancy. Simply using topical medications cannot completely cure the condition. Currently, Haijixing treats vaginal leukoplakia inflammation, which not only effectively relieves itching symptoms but also leaves no scars and has a low recurrence rate. It can fundamentally stabilize the microcirculation and nutritional status of the dermal layer and nerve endings, allowing the inflamed vaginal skin to return to normal. Vaginal leukoplakia is an easily occurring gynecological disease. During treatment, women need to pay attention to their self-care.
