Atrophic vulvar leukoplakia is a type of leukoplakia that causes great changes in the shape of the private parts and has a great harmful impact on the patient. The private skin becomes dry and soft, with reduced elasticity, and the clitoris, labia majora and minora become atrophied. If the atrophy is more serious, atrophy will also occur in the vagina, causing pain during sexual intercourse and even difficulty in sexual life, which causes great physical and mental harm to women. See below for symptoms and pictures of vulvar atrophy. Vulvar atrophy symptoms and pictures: Vulvar atrophy What is vulvar atrophy: Vulvar atrophy refers to a group of diseases in which the function of women's skin and private mucosa is reduced, resulting in tissue depigmentation. For a long time, clinical doctors have habitually referred to private diseases with whitening, widening or shrinkage of the skin and mucous membranes as "vulvar atrophy". Female friends must pay attention to keeping the private parts comfortable, clean, and ventilated in daily life, avoid friction and irritation, and avoid scratching. Do not clean the vulva too often. It is best to clean it 2 to 3 times a week. Do not use soap or alkaline cleaning liquid when cleaning, and avoid excessive boiling water. When a woman's vulva shrinks, there are usually two factors: 1. Normal physiological shrinkage. For middle-aged and elderly women after menopause, the ovaries decline, the level of estrogen metabolism decreases, and the target organs also shrink. The vulva atrophy caused by this situation will not affect the shape of the private parts. 2. Atrophic vulvar leukoplakia. This disease is caused by obstruction of blood circulation in the subcutaneous tissue of the private part and imbalance of metabolism. The private skin, tissues and mucous membranes will experience varying degrees of itching, thickening or softening of the epidermal keratinization, dryness, shrinkage and other symptoms. The vulvar atrophy is not obvious in the early stage. If it is not treated in time and with attention to medical care, factors such as gynecological inflammation, irritation, traumatic birth injuries, skin allergies, etc. will aggravate the symptoms of vulvar leukoplakia. |
