Recently, I have been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I am very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I am also extremely afraid of cold and coldness. Please adviseDoctor's answer:
Hello, to treat leukoplakia of the vulva first, it is important to maintain the vulva clean and dry at all times. Stop using irritating medications or soaps to wash the vulva, avoid wearing non-breathable synthetic underwear, and do not eat spicy or easily allergenic foods.Second, you can choose to apply medication locally to the vulva. Currently, options like testosterone propionate and progesterone are effective. For stubborn itching that does not respond to topical treatments, triamcinolone suspension can be injected subcutaneously.
Recommendation: For severe cases or when medication treatment is ineffective, options such as vulvar magnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasound or superficial vulvectomy may be considered.
All the methods mentioned above can help treat leukoplakia of the vulva and stabilize the condition. You may want to try them. Wishing you good health.
