Patient's question:
Patient Gender: FemalePatient Age: 26
I only got pregnant after trying for more than half a year, which was supposed to be a happy event. However, I was diagnosed with leukoplakia of the vulva. I had never had this disease before, and now that I am already three months pregnant, I am too afraid
Doctor's answer:
Hello, during pregnancy, if there is vulvar leukoplakia, no matter which treatment method is used, it is not recommended to undergo treatment at this stage. Therefore, vulvar leukoplakia patients should pay attention to cleaning the vulvar skin during this period, avoid spicy and irritating foods in their diet, and focus on health maintenance in daily life to temporarily alleviate the symptoms of vulvar leukoplakia and prevent the condition from worsening. During childbirth, it is best to choose a cesarean section, as vaginal delivery, due to excessive force, may cause further damage to the affected skin and affect later treatment.
