The appearance of vulvar leukoplakia has a serious impact on women, and its harm must be clearly understood. Reasonable prevention should be taken in daily life to reduce the probability of illness.
Can vulvar leukoplakia affect pregnancy
Vulvar leukoplakia undoubtedly has many effects on women's pregnancy. On the other hand, patients with vulvar leukoplakia mainly exhibit itching of the external genitalia, which may worsen during pregnancy. However, for expectant mothers, oral medication and topical medication should not be used arbitrarily, causing great pain to expectant mothers and requiring them to endure many pregnancies.
In addition, pregnant women with vaginal leukoplakia may also infect the fetus during delivery, and the fetus may develop a series of diseases one after another. From this, it can be seen that vulvar leukoplakia is still significant for women. It is recommended to consider things that require children after treatment to avoid irreversible harm to the mother and baby.
Harm of vulvar leukoplakia
1. Inheritance affects the next generation: Genital leukoplakia has a certain degree of inheritance and is the main cause of vulvar leukoplakia in young girls. At present, although there are many international cutting-edge treatments that can successfully treat vulvar leukoplakia, if young girls suffer from this disease, due to age, they do not have a certain level of self-care ability, making treatment relatively difficult and the treatment cycle long.
2. Childbearing difficulties: For women who have not given birth, the vulva leukoplakia narrows the Vaginal orifice, and it is difficult to give birth. At the same time, some bacteria may infect the fetus during delivery, causing various adverse consequences. Therefore, if a pregnant woman with vulvar leukoplakia wants to give birth, doctors may recommend using a cesarean section.
3. Dysuria: This is one of the more common hazards brought by the white spot of the vulva. Because the white spot of the vulva will lead to the skin mucous membrane, or light red, and the surface is rough, there will also be cracks, ulcers, erosion and other phenomena, or it will harden and lose elasticity, which will lead to difficulty in urination.
4. The sexual life of the couple is seriously affected: the white spot of the vulva will cause the white spot surface to thicken or become very smooth, the skin of the lesion will become dry and lose elasticity, the patient's pubic hair will become scarce or fall off, and the Vaginal orifice will become narrow, which will affect the quality of sexual life
5. Carcinogenesis: If white spots on the vulva cannot be effectively treated for a long time, they will turn into cancer when the condition is severe, such as vulvar cancer, which threatens the lives of female friends.
