What are the symptoms of vulvar leukoplakia?

Patient's question:

About a few days ago, I felt uncomfortable in my external genital area, itchy, and it seemed to get worse day by day.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, leukoplakia of the vulva refers to a disease caused by tissue degeneration and changes in pigmentation due to local nerve and blood vessel nutritional disorders of the vulva. Its main causes are infections and inflammatory stimuli in the genital area. Additionally, endocrine disorders, genetic factors, and other primary diseases such as diabetes, vitiligo, and vulvar eczema can also lead to the occurrence of leukoplakia of the vulva. Treatment methods typically include drug therapy, physical therapy, and surgical treatment, among others.
