Patient's question:
How long have you had leukoplakia of the vulva?Doctor's answer:
Conservative treatment often employs a combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine. If there is severe itching at the affected area, decoctions of Chinese herbal medicines can be used to steam-wash the external genitalia, once or twice daily. After washing, dry the area and apply a 2% compound testosterone ointment (this medication can be prepared by the patient under the guidance of a doctor) to the affected skin by gently rubbing it in with fingers. Oral vitamin A can be taken at a dose of 250,000 to 500,000 units per day, and vitamin B6 at 100 milligrams per day.
