What should I do if white color appears on my genitals?

At present, diseases of the female vulva are a more obvious problem for them. They are mainly disorders in the skin or mucous membrane of the female vulva, and white lesions of the vulva. Many women feel very uncomfortable, especially during sexual intercourse. However, few people understand the cause of this disease. Then I can give you a brief description.

Vulvar leukoplakia refers to the tissue degeneration and hypopigmentation caused by nutritional disorders in the skin and mucous membranes of the vulva. Because the skin color turns white and occurs in the vulva, it is named vulvar white lesions. It is now called chronic vulvar dystrophy, which was previously called vulvar leukoplakia. When people mention vulvar leukoplakia, they think of it as a precancerous lesion. The thought of the possibility of it turning into cancer causes many people to panic. In fact, vulvar white lesions are a group of skin diseases that include hypopigmentation changes of the vulvar skin, such as vulvar dermatitis (neurodermatitis, chronic eczema), lichen sclerosus, lichen planus, vitiligo, Candida albicans infection, etc. After years of observation and a large amount of clinical data statistics, only about 2% of vulvar leukoplakia diagnosed in the past will develop into cancer.

Therefore, in 1975, the International Society of Vulvar Diseases recommended abolishing the name of "vulvar leukoplakia" and changing the disease to "chronic vulvar malnutrition". However, there is no unified naming in China at present. Among them, because some of them may turn into vulvar cancer and pose a threat to life, it has attracted more attention and people are advised to take good care of themselves. Therefore, it is necessary for us to understand this group of diseases separately in order to prevent and treat the diseases at an early stage and maintain a good and healthy life.

Therefore, the incidence rate of diseases in this area ranks relatively high. It is not only a skin inflammation, but may also be the result of gynecological diseases. It mainly requires women to pay attention to the hygiene of their genitals and pay attention to their diet every day. The editor believes that in the future life, most women will be wary because diseases in this area have a greater impact.
