How to treat vulvar leukoplakia better after its discovery

Patient's question:

I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I also feel extremely cold and afraid of coldness. How can leukoplakia of the external genitalia be treated effectively?

Doctor's answer:

Surgical excision causes significant physical harm to patients and involves extensive skin abrasion. Vulvar leukoplakia is a notoriously difficult-to-heal and recurrent condition, earning it the clinical diagnosis of a persistent problem. Traditional treatments such as topical medications, laser therapy, BOM (Bomei) treatment, and microwave therapy are effective only on the superficial layer of the skin. While they can alleviate itching, the effects are not long-lasting, and the condition is prone to recurrence, often making it difficult to treat effectively.
