Patient's question:
Description of the condition: Affected for 30 years, atrophy, adhesion, and hyperplasia.Previous treatment and effectiveness: Western and traditional Chinese medicine have not been ideal.
What kind of help do you want: Taccara (Taccaria) is more suitable for atrophy and hyperplasia. Which type of leukoplakia of the vulva should be treated? Will it be effective for me given that I have had the condition for a long time and it is severe? Will it be effective for adhesion? I am undergoing conservative treatment and do not want to be recommended for surgery, as I believe surgery causes trauma and is prone to recurrence. Please answer my questions. Thank you!!!
Doctor's answer:
Hello, leukoplakia of the vulva, which may be vulvar lichen sclerosis, or squamous hyperplasia of the vulva, or both coexist. The specific type of medical record requires a biopsy for pathology. Currently, there is no effective cure, and long-term medication is needed to alleviate symptoms. It may potentially spread to the perianal area. It is recommended to use Efluor cream or vitamin A acid cream for topical treatment. Laser therapy can also be tried. Hydrocortisone 2% ointment can be used to relieve itching. Or apply 2% testosterone propionate cod liver oil ointment. It is important to maintain cleanliness and dryness. Avoid using soap or irritating drugs to clean the vulva. Do not eat spicy or irritating foods. Clothing should be loose and comfortable. Change and wash frequently. At the same time, it is important to wear soft cotton products.
