Patient's question:
At first, I didn't feel anything uncomfortable, but recently, during intimacy with my husband, I've noticed dryness, and I've also always felt itchy externally. After a check-up, they said it's leukoplakia of the vulva. I'm not familiar with this condition. Could you please tell me: How much will it cost to treat advanced vulvar leukoplakia?Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on the description of the above content, your condition is considered to be leukoplakia of the vulva, in order to prevent malignant transformation. It is more common in postmenopausal women, primarily, mainly affecting the labia majora, labial sulci, and posterior labial commissure. Treatment: Always maintain cleanliness and dryness of the vulvar skin, stop using soap or other irritating drugs for washing, prevent scratching with hands, avoid spicy or allergenic foods, wear loose and breathable clothing, and prevent local moisture. Medications can include hydrocortisone cream, triamcinolone acetonide cream, and hydrocortisone cream. If long-term treatment is ineffective, surgery can be considered. Laser treatment can also be used.
