Patient's question:
I have been sick for over ten years. The early symptoms were itching, and now the itching is particularly severe with some pain. Previous treatments had no significant effect, just reducing the itching, but now it has worsened. How can it be cured completely?Doctor's answer:
Vaginal leukoplakia is characterized by localized or diffuse white patches on the skin of the female genital area, severe itching, and recurrent episodes as its main manifestations. There is a possibility of it progressing to vaginal cancer.Recommendations: If long-term treatment does not yield significant improvement, surgical excision is recommended to prevent the potential transformation into vaginal cancer. If surgery is temporarily undesirable, some traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) treatments can be used for (regulating and nourishing the body), but the effectiveness is generally not ideal. For severe cases of vaginal leukoplakia, it is advised to seek medical attention as soon as possible.
