What are the main causes of vulvar leukoplakia?

Patient's question:

What is the cause of vulvar leukoplakia? I haven't married yet, and recently during a physical examination, I was told I have vulvar leukoplakia. Is this condition serious? Will it affect my future ability to get pregnant? What should I do?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, for the treatment of leukoplakia of the vulva, it is necessary to cut off the inflammation of the leukoplakia, repair vulvar skin damage, completely restore the normal function of vulvar skin tissue cells, stabilize the nutritional status of microvessels and nerve endings, change the local tissue growth environment, promote the regeneration of local tissues, and gradually completely eliminate the leukoplakia. During the healing process, attention should be paid to nursing and management, combining treatment and care, temporarily suspending sexual activity, and maintaining vulvar cleanliness at all times. Avoid using some market preparations for washing, and when itching is severe, protective ointments can be applied. Try to control yourself and avoid scratching as much as possible. Do not wear tight or poorly breathable synthetic underwear, and eat less irritating food!
