Patient's question:
Recently, I've had vaginal itching. During sexual activity, my partner noticed white patches on my vulva, which felt slightly hard and weren't very painful. When I went to the hospital, they said I had vaginitis and leukoplakia of the vulva.What are the causes of leukoplakia of the vulva?
Doctor's answer:
Infection and inflammatory stimulation are the main reasons, accounting for about 50% of patients affected by this disease. There are several factors that can trigger vulvar infection and inflammatory stimulation, such as poor hygiene habits, acute or chronic vaginitis, soaking in public baths, visiting bathhouses, and cross-infection during stays in hotels. These factors lead to vaginal inflammation. This is the complete introduction to "What are the causes of vulvar leukoplakia?" Finally, we wish all patients a speedy recovery and a healthy life.
