Therefore, experts call on patients to seek timely treatment when problems arise. So what are the methods for treating vulvar leukoplakia? Well, let the experts introduce this issue to us below.

Treatment of vulvar leukoplakia is a long-term treatment process.

Do not eat spicy and allergenic foods, wear loose clothes, and avoid wearing non-breathable synthetic underwear to prevent long-term accumulation of moisture and heat and aggravation of the disease.

(2) Treatment methods of traditional Chinese medicine: Traditional Chinese medicine believes that insufficient essence and blood, deficiency of the Ren meridian, and withering of the vulva are the main causes of nutritional disorders of the vulva. The traditional Chinese medicine vulvar tinea clear liquid can be used. Method: First wash the vulva with warm water, then take a cotton swab or a sterile cotton ball and dip it in the liquid medicine, apply it to the affected area of ​​the vulva, repeat it three times, once a day, and use it every day. After 2 to 3 courses of treatment, you will recover.

(3) Local microwave therapy: the treatment is mainly aimed at controlling local itching.

(4) Surgical treatment: simple vulvar excision or laser treatment.

Huang Hongjun, an expert on vulvar leukoplakia, introduces the method of treating vulvar leukoplakia:

1. Use medication

Local application of androgens or progestins results in longer hormone treatment duration, poor symptom control, easy relapse after discontinuation of medication, and the need for frequent repeated medication, and poor patient compliance.

2. Surgical treatment

Vulvar white lesions have a 10% to 15% malignancy rate, and surgical excision is often recommended. However, the postoperative recurrence rate is as high as 50%, and there is a possibility of recurrence after another surgery. After the operation, scars are easily formed on the diseased vulva, leading to difficulty in sexual intercourse and a decline in the quality of sexual life.

3. The new triple-target therapy is more effective in treating vulvar leukoplakia. It has high safety during treatment, good skin recovery after treatment, and short treatment time for women.

The above is the expert's opinion on this issue. If the treatment is carried out according to the above-mentioned expert's method, it can ensure that the patient's condition can be well controlled and avoid the aggravation of the disease and affect the patient's health. In particular, attention should be paid to the psychological and physiological effects of gynecological diseases on women.
