Patient's question:
Is the issue of leukoplakia of the vulva serious? I'm not married, and I was recently told during a physical examination that I have leukoplakia of the vulva. 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. Do not use some market cleaning agents for wiping. When itching is severe, protective ointment can be applied. Try to control yourself and avoid scratching. Do not wear tight or poorly breathable synthetic underwear, and eat less irritating food.The recurrence of vulvar leukoplakia severely affects women's health. Patients need to pay attention to postmenstrual follow-up in daily life, maintain a light diet, and avoid spicy and irritating foods.
