What are the dangers of vulvar leukoplakia

Vulvar leukoplakia is a common gynecological disease nowadays. There is no clear cause of this disease. It may be caused by genetic, autoimmune, hormone deficiency, moist vulva and other factors. The patient will feel itchy vulva and always want to scratch. Especially at night, I was so itchy that I couldn’t sleep and tossed and turned in bed. You will also find white spots growing at the roots of your thighs. Here I will introduce to you the dangers it causes.

1. Hereditary, affecting the next generation. Vulvar leukoplakia is somewhat hereditary, which is the primary reason why young girls suffer from vulvar leukoplakia. Because of their age, young girls do not have certain self-care abilities, so treatment is relatively difficult and the treatment cycle is long.

2. Difficult delivery. For women who have not given birth, vulvar leukoplakia can make childbirth difficult. At the same time, some pathogens may infect the fetus during delivery, causing various adverse consequences.

3. Difficulty urinating. Vulvar leukoplakia can cause the skin and mucous membranes to become light red and rough, with cracks, ulcers, erosions, etc., or they may become hard and lose elasticity, leading to difficulty in urination.

4. Seriously affect the sexual life of couples. Vulvar leukoplakia can cause the patient's pubic hair to become sparse or fall off, and the vaginal opening to become narrow, which will affect the quality of sexual life.

5. Cause difficulties in delivery. Because the vaginal opening becomes narrow, it becomes very difficult for female patients to give birth to a fetus, and bacteria may infect the fetus during delivery, causing serious consequences.

Although vulvar leukoplakia is not contagious, it is very harmful to women because it is not easy to detect and difficult to treat. In addition, if the treatment is not timely and the best treatment time is delayed, it is very likely that it cannot be cured. Even if it is cured, it may relapse. Therefore, women should pay attention to hygiene in daily life to prevent the occurrence of vulvar leukoplakia.
