Can you still have children if you have vulvar leukoplakia? In life, many women are affected by vulvar leukoplakia. Once a woman suffers from this disease, she will have white spots, itchy skin and tingling sensation. If it is not treated in time, it will cause great harm to the patient's body. So, can you still have children if you have vulvar leukoplakia?

The first thing I need to tell you is that vulvar leukoplakia will not affect the patient's reproductive function, but if the disease develops to moderate or severe levels and has not been effectively treated, it will cause female infertility and have a great impact on conception, so you must attach importance to treatment and do not delay the disease.

1. Treatment with traditional Chinese medicine: mainly using traditional Chinese medicine for external application and flushing to clear away heat and toxic substances, dispel wind and dampness, and activate blood circulation and remove stasis. There are many reports on this treatment, but there is still a lack of objective evaluation indicators and long-term follow-up, and the efficacy reports are inconsistent.

2. Hormone therapy: It mainly aims to relieve itching and thin the skin by anti-inflammatory, inhibiting connective tissue hyperplasia, and strengthening skin protein decomposition. Commonly used are glucocorticoid ointments or creams. Androgens or progesterone can also be applied topically. Hormone treatment lasts for a long time, symptom control is poor, and relapses are easy after discontinuation of medication. It also requires frequent and repeated medication, and patients with vulvar leukoplakia have poor compliance.

In addition, there are also cryotherapy, electrocautery therapy, laser therapy, ultrasound therapy, etc. There are many methods to treat vulvar leukoplakia. Patients are advised not to choose blindly, because each patient's physique and condition are different. Only the right medicine can get better faster and more thoroughly.
