Patient's question:
I am not married yet. Recently, after a physical examination, I was told that I have leukoplakia of the vulva. Is this disease serious? Will it affect my future pregnancy? How should I treat leukoplakia of the vulva?Doctor's answer:
Hello, it may be caused by local environmental factors of the vulva, such as physical stimuli like moisture or heat, leading to leukoplakia of the vulva. It may also be triggered by diabetes or endocrine disorders.Treatment methods include: washing the vulva with a Ph4 weak acid female care liquid, followed by local application of hormone medications, local anesthetic treatment for anaerobic bacteria, and traditional Chinese medicine therapy. Alternatively, physical treatments such as microwave therapy, carbon dioxide laser, helium-neon laser, BOM light, high-frequency electric knife, local electrocautery, and cryotherapy with liquid nitrogen can be used.
The recurrence of leukoplakia of the vulva severely affects women's health. Patients need to pay attention to maintaining vulvar cleanliness in daily life and avoid sexual activity. It is hoped that female patients can receive proper treatment.
