The relationship between Yin sore and vulvar leukoplakia

Patient's question:

What is the disease of Yin zhuyu? Is it a gynecological disease? Is there a connection with leukoplakia of the external genitalia? Is leukoplakia of the external genitalia a type of Yin zhuyu?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, leukoplakia of the vulva is considered to be related to vulvar infection, inflammatory stimulation leading to endocrine disorders, and genetic factors. It often causes itching in the genital area, dry skin, thickening and whitening, loss of elasticity, and even atrophy and ulceration, accompanied by pain and a burning sensation. Vitamin E oil or progesterone cream can be applied externally to nourish the vulva. A bad odor may also be related to inflammation.
Women, in particular, need proper hygiene and protection for the private area. Therefore, whether or not they have gynecological diseases, it is essential to maintain vulvar hygiene, wear breathable synthetic underwear as much as possible, and avoid spicy or allergenic foods.
Note: Avoid using soap during cleaning, as it is harmful and ineffective for the body.
