Patient's question:
At first, I didn't feel anything uncomfortable, but recently, during intimacy with my husband, I've found it very dry, and I often feel itchy externally. After a check-up, they said it's leukoplakia of the vulva. I'm not very familiar with this condition. Could you please tell me: can leukoplakia of the vulva be treated?Doctor's answer:
The treatment methods for vulvar leukoplakia vary from person to person. Depending on individual physical conditions, the treatment approaches differ. Surgical excision causes significant physical harm to patients and involves extensive skin abrasion. Vulvar leukoplakia is a notoriously difficult-to-heal and recurrent condition, earning it the clinical diagnosis of a persistent problem. Traditional treatments such as topical medications, laser therapy, BOM and microwave treatment primarily target the superficial layers of the skin. While they can alleviate itching, the effects are often not long-lasting, and the condition tends to recur frequently, making it difficult for the condition to resolve on its own. Surgical excision also causes significant physical harm to patients and involves extensive skin abrasion.Leveraging its strong capabilities, 309 Hospital pioneered the Haisijing minimally invasive technology, breaking the traditional model with an internal-to-external treatment approach. This method selectively and thoroughly eliminates tissue cells prone to recurring inflammation.
