Patient's question:
I have been with my boyfriend for over three years. Since we started having sex, my vagina has been itchy. Sometimes it's so uncomfortable. At first, the doctor said it was bacterial vaginosis, but the medication didn't help, and I also have white spots on my outer labia. The doctor then said it was leukoplakia of the vulva, and now I'm even more itchy.Doctor's answer:
Hello, non-pregnant women can take anti-inflammatory drugs such as metronidazole. Vulvar leukoplakia is often caused by infections in the vulvar area, endocrine disorders, or genetic factors. Physical treatments such as microwave therapy can be used, or Chinese herbal medicine can be taken according to syndrome differentiation. During treatment, alcohol should be avoided, and raw, spicy, and irritating foods such as chili peppers, raw scallions, and raw garlic should also be avoided.
