Can I still get pregnant with vulvar leukoplakia?

Patient's question:

Last year, I experienced vulvar itching, and after a thorough examination, I was diagnosed with leukoplakia of the vulva. The hospital prescribed topical medication, which I have been enduring ever since. Currently, my condition is well-controlled and quite stable. I am no longer young, and I have been divorced for over three years. Due to this condition, I have postponed my plans to have children. Now, I want to have a baby. What should I do?

Doctor's answer:

A very severe leukoplakia of the vulva may affect pregnancy, but your condition should never cause an impact if the condition is stable. If the condition is stable, you can consider having a child, but first, please undergo a comprehensive physical examination. For severe leukoplakia patients, it is recommended to seek medical attention immediately. Follow the doctor's advice for immediate treatment and do not switch to new medications randomly, otherwise, the effect may be counterproductive.
