Patient's question:
Recently, I haven't been feeling well and went to the hospital for a diagnosis. I was told I have leukoplakia of the vulva. What are the reasons that can cause it? Can it heal on its own? How often should I have a check-up? What are the main things to check for leukoplakia of the vulva?Doctor's answer:
The detailed examination for leukoplakia of the vulva includes vaginal discharge examination, routine gynecological examination of the vulva, and the charging standards for the same detailed examination in different hospitals have certain differences, but the prices will never be too far apart. The most important aspect of leukoplakia of the vulva is the clinical manifestation. Secondly, we must perform a pathological biopsy, such as blood tests to check for thyroid issues or antinuclear antibodies. The patients diagnosed with leukoplakia of the vulva must receive comprehensive treatment, and during the treatment period, it is essential to increase sexual activity. Local applications of corticosteroid ointments can be used.
