What is the disease that causes white spots on the genitals?

We all know that the most common disease for women is gynecological disease. When we find abnormalities in the genitals, it is a manifestation of gynecological disease. There are many types of gynecological diseases, and the symptoms are also different. Most women will worry, panic, and use medication indiscriminately when they find out that they have gynecological diseases. Doing so will only delay the disease and make it worse. Next, let’s talk about the causes of white spots on the genitals.

Vulvar hypopigmentation refers to a group of chronic diseases in which the skin and mucosal tissues of the female vulva undergo degeneration and pigmentation changes. It is also called vulvar white lesions and is often secondary to chronic irritation and inflammation of the vulva. It is more common in people aged 40-60 years. According to statistics, the cancer rate of this disease is about 2%-5%. The cause of the disease is still unknown. In 1987, the International Vulvar Disease Society and gynecological pathologists divided it into two types: vulvar squamous cell hyperplasia and lichen sclerosus, which is female vulvar leukoplakia.

1. Endocrine disorders: Endocrine diseases are caused by endocrine disorders due to pathological changes in the body, or due to genetics, enzyme defects, immune function and other reasons. The imbalance between local connective tissue hyperplasia and the stimulation of epidermal metabolism leads to the occurrence of vulvar leukoplakia.

2. Genetics: Genetics only accounts for 20% of the factors that cause vulvar leukoplakia. However, vulvar leukoplakia caused by genetic factors cannot be ignored, because genetically caused vulvar leukoplakia is mainly atrophic type, and most patients are underage girls. Therefore, in clinical practice, patients under the age of fifteen should first be analyzed to see whether there are genetic factors.

3. Gynecological inflammation: In addition to causing various symptoms, gynecological inflammation can also cause local nerve and blood vessel damage, Trichomonas vaginitis, candidal vaginitis, cervical erosion and other inflammations, which can cause increased vaginal secretions and leucorrhea degeneration, long-term irritation to the vulva, and cause vulvar leukoplakia. Therefore, this is one of the causes of leukoplakia on the female vulva.

4. Trauma: In addition to the above three types, some pregnant women have perineal tears during delivery, causing local nerve and blood vessel damage, and a small number of women develop vulvar leukoplakia as a result. It indirectly explains that trauma may also lead to the occurrence of vulvar leukoplakia.

The above is an analysis of the gynecological diseases that may occur if there are white spots on the genitals. Gynecological diseases can bring a lot of trouble to our lives and work. Therefore, we must take timely prevention and pay more attention to genital hygiene and sexual hygiene in daily life. Pay more attention to physical exercise to maintain physical and mental health. Everyone's living habits will affect their physical health. Bad living habits directly affect the body's resistance. When the resistance is reduced, various diseases will follow.
