Patient's question:
I discovered the condition of leukoplakia of the external genitalia four years ago, and in this year, the symptoms have become increasingly severe, with itching and depigmentation of the vulva. Previously, I had purchased many medications for this condition myself, but they did not show any effect; instead, they slowed the progression of the worsening condition.Doctor's answer:
According to your description, leukoplakia of the vulva can only relieve symptoms and cannot heal on its own. If you have severe vulvar itching, it is recommended to use traditional Chinese medicine for external washing followed by topical medication. It is suggested that you use traditional Chinese medicine for treatment, which can be quite effective. However, leukoplakia of the vulva will never interfere with fertility. If you haven't had a pathology examination, you should have a pathology excision to prevent further deterioration. For patients, if the condition of leukoplakia of the vulva is severe, immediate symptomatic treatment should be initiated, and appropriate medication should be used. Otherwise, it may lead to a recurrence of leukoplakia of the vulva. In addition, patients also need to maintain a proper diet and keep a positive mood. I hope the answers to the above questions can help everyone. Thank you.
