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? Please ask: Which methods are effective for treating leukoplakia of the vulva?Doctor's answer:
Hello, leukoplakia of the vulva is a gynecological disease that results in white, rough, thickened, hardened, cracked, scaly, or loss of elasticity of the vulvar skin and mucous membranes due to local loss of pigment in the vulvar skin of women. Leukoplakia of the vulva can be treated with 2% hydrocortisone ointment to reduce swelling and relieve pain, or with 2% testosterone fish oil ointment for topical application. It is important to maintain cleanliness and dryness, avoid using soap or irritating medications to clean the vulva, and refrain from consuming spicy or irritating foods. Leukoplakia of the vulva is a gynecological disease that is prone to recurrence. During treatment, women should pay close attention to their own care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is recommended that patients avoid sexual activity during treatment and pay attention to cleanliness. Finally, we wish female patients a speedy recovery!
