Patient's question:
My wife had white spots on her vulva last month. She is very afraid that it will infect me. Does vulvar leukoplakia in women spread?Doctor's answer:
Women experiencing multiple occurrences of leukoplakia of the vulva is mainly caused by fungal infections, local adverse conditions of the vulvar skin, a decline in the body's resistance and immunity, and generational inheritance factors, among other reasons. Leukoplakia of the vulva is not contagious, so there is no need to worry excessively. Moreover, it is essential to seek timely treatment for leukoplakia of the vulva, as if left untreated and allowed to spread, it may lead to the complete disappearance of the labia and clitoris.
