What causes white spots on labia?

It may be due to lack of hygiene, or candidal vaginitis caused by bacterial infection during sexual intercourse, or it may be caused by pseudo-condyloma acuminatum.

This should be a candidal vaginitis that can cause this situation. It is recommended that you go to the hospital for a routine check of your leucorrhea. If necessary, it is recommended to use 5% sodium bicarbonate for external washing. Try using some Daktarin vaginal suppository. Generally speaking, the effect of regular treatment is better.

White spots on both sides of the labia may be caused by vulvar leukoplakia. The hazards of vulvar leukoplakia include:

1. Patients with vulvar leukoplakia often feel unbearable itching in the vulva, as if a hole is drilled in the heart. The itching is paroxysmal, especially at night, accompanied by burning, dryness and discomfort, which seriously affects sleep.

2. The vulvar skin and mucosa turn white or light pink, the surface becomes rough and uneven, and there are cracks, ulcers, erosions, or it becomes hard and loses elasticity, which may cause difficulty in urination. The local skin and mucous membranes become thinner and swollen, and the labia majora and minora shrink or even disappear, making the vaginal opening narrower. This can cause difficulties in sexual life and may also cause difficulties in childbirth, necessitating a cesarean section.

3. Patients with vulvar leukoplakia may experience symptoms of sexual apathy, which seriously affects the quality of sexual life of couples.

4. Severe cases of vulvar leukoplakia may develop into vulvar cancer, with a canceration rate as high as 10-50%.

There are usually two ways to check for vulvar leukoplakia: the first is a routine gynecological examination. The second is laboratory examination of vaginal discharge. The examination of vulvar leukoplakia is generally based on the local symptoms of the vulva, and the doctor makes a judgment through inspection and touch. At the same time, it can also be analyzed with the help of modern instruments. Vulvar leukoplakia can generally be diagnosed based on symptoms. For example, if the local mucosa of the vulva turns white, and there are phenomena such as itching, roughness, and desquamation, it will be diagnosed as vulvar leukoplakia. Of course, there are many types of vulvar leukoplakia. If the vulvar leukoplakia is of the hyperplastic type, that is, the local skin and mucosa are thickened, the elasticity becomes worse, and corresponding ulcers and other discomfort symptoms appear, further cell biopsy is needed to observe whether there are cancer cells in order to confirm the diagnosis.
