Vulvar leukoplakia is a disease that we should pay attention to, and the impact on patients after illness is also very serious. It is necessary to clarify the factors of illness and pay attention to reasonable prevention in daily life.
Can vulvar vitiligo be contagious?
Vulvar vitiligo is now commonly referred to as white lesions of the vulva in clinical practice, which refers to varying degrees of whitening, roughness, and atrophy of the skin of the vulva. Many patients are now concerned about this disease mainly due to two issues. One is whether vulvar vitiligo can be transmitted? Is there another type of vulvar leukoplakia that can cause cancer? At present, it has not been found that vulvar leukoplakia is infectious. Therefore, if your friends, classmates, or couples suffer from this disease, there is no need to panic, even discriminate against and neglect them, to avoid increasing their psychological burden, as doing so can easily mislead the disease. Through a 30 year follow-up survey by medical experts on vulvar day shift patients, it has been confirmed that 2% of patients will develop cancer. Although cancer is not high, this possibility does exist, so patients must actively seek treatment.
Etiology of vulvar leukoplakia
1. Genetic factors: About 10% to 30% of patients with mucosal leukoplakia. It is a genetic disease caused by genetic factors, especially in patients with atrophic vulvar leukoplakia, especially in young girls. Patients under the age of 15 in clinical practice should first pay attention to genetic factors, and families should investigate their parents. There are no vitiligo patients
2. Endocrine disorders: Pathological abnormalities of endocrine glands and tissues, genetic enzyme defects, immune function and endocrine disorders, endocrine diseases, and other reasons. With the determination of thymosin and deoxyribonucleoside (H3), there is epidermal cell division, which can inhibit the growth of cancer cells, skin epidermal protein hormone, somatostatin, stimulation of local connective tissue proliferation, and skin causes mucosal leukoplakia, which is unbalanced with metabolism.
3. STD infection and inflammation: About 50% of patients are on-site. Genital organ infections and inflammation lead to many factors, such as poor hygiene habits, such as wearing synthetic underwear, hygiene supplies, stools, bathhouses, and swimming pools. Due to vaginitis, it cannot be treated in a timely manner, secreting inflammatory cells that immerse in the perineum. Long term infection and stimulation can cause skin and mucosal damage, redness, swelling, ulcers, and degeneration, gradually developing into white spots on the external genitalia.
4. Diabetes, vitiligo, eczema, vulva, vulva pruritus and other diseases, such as drug abuse, improper treatment, or aggravated the formation and development of vulva leukoplakia.
