Patient's question:
A few days ago, while taking a bath, I noticed two white patches on my vulva and didn't pay much attention to it. In the past few days, I've occasionally felt itchy in the vulva. After doing some research, I found that it's somewhat similar to the symptoms of leukoplakia of the vulva. It must not be, right? Is this condition common? What causes leukoplakia of the vulva?Doctor's answer:
Vaginal leukoplakia is a very common gynecological disease, and you don't need to worry. Generally, gynecological hospitals have relevant treatment options. The causes of vaginal leukoplakia are usually due to some poor hygiene habits in daily life, such as improper cleaning, accidentally scratching the vulva with hands, or chemical irritation from hygiene products. In addition to timely treatment for vaginal leukoplakia, patients should maintain a positive attitude to face the disease. Only in this way can patients receive timely and appropriate treatment. At the same time, it is important to pay attention to dietary care and monitor changes in symptoms, believing that this will surely drive away vaginal leukoplakia.
