Patient's question:
Where is it good and reliable to treat leukoplakia of the external genitalia? While taking a bath, I noticed that my private area had become very rough, and recently I've been feeling itchy all the time, especially when I'm at work, it's really embarrassing. Is my condition leukoplakia? Is this a big problem?Doctor's answer:
Vaginal leukoplakia is mainly caused by continuous scratching and irritation due to vaginal itching, leading to keratinization and loss of pigmentation. You can first consider using a topical medication method to try. A commonly used method is a mixture of three medications: vitamin E cream + testosterone propionate + prednisone cream, applied to the affected area. If this method is ineffective, you may need to consider visiting plastic surgery hospitals for further treatment of vaginal leukoplakia, as its recurrence can severely affect women's health. Patients should pay attention to follow-up examinations after menstruation, maintain a light diet, and avoid spicy and irritating foods. Finally, we hope that female patients can receive professional treatment.
