Vulvar pruritus is the first symptom of leukoplakia, especially at night. The degree of itching is related to time, menstruation, climate, food, environment, and mood. Symptoms of itchy leukoplakia are usually intermittent, and patients often scratch because of the itchiness. Due to scratching, there are many scratches and swellings in the external vagina. As a result of long-term itching, local ulceration, chapped, ulcerated and secondary infection occur. Therefore, patients with leukoplakia often have local burning pain, especially the clitoris and labia minora are very sensitive. In the early stage, the local keratinization is excessive and the skin is infiltrated.

The vulvar skin and mucosa show localized or diffuse white thickening, leathery, raised and wrinkled, or scaly, eczematous symptoms of vulvar leukoplakia. The skin color of the vulva is mostly purple or light red, but can also be grayish white or grayish blue, with clearly defined white keratinized plaques in different shapes and sizes.
