Patient's question:
In the recent period, I have been experiencing itching and some whitening in my private area. Some are worried it might be leukoplakia of the vulva. Please ask: What are the common causes that can lead to leukoplakia of the vulva?Doctor's answer:
Hello, it's a pleasure to help you solve the problem. According to your description, the causes of vulvar leukoplakia are related to changes in the internal environment, including endocrine disorders, functional imbalances between the liver, spleen, and kidneys, as well as repeated infections of local vulvar inflammation. Therefore, do not overexert yourself, ensure deep sleep, and readjust your emotions to boost your immunity. Inflammation of the vulva and vagina should be treated promptly, and external factors that cause inflammation should be avoided. If you suffer from vulvar leukoplakia, it's important to seek timely treatment at a regular specialized hospital to prevent the disease from progressing to a severe stage and turning into cancer, which could endanger your life.
