Common causes of vulvar leukoplakia

What are the main causes of common vulvar leukoplakia? I believe many people have this question. Vulvar leukoplakia refers to the state of varying degrees of whitening or rough atrophy of the skin and mucous membrane of the vulva caused by various factors. Understanding the cause is the key to treatment. Let us learn about the causes of vulvar leukoplakia .

The etiology of vulvar leukoplakia is very complex and is related to factors such as heredity, allergy, chronic inflammatory stimulation, endocrine disorders, immune metabolic disorders, and microcirculatory disorders. Infection and inflammatory stimulation are the main causes, accounting for about 50% of patients with the disease.

There are many factors that cause vulvar infection and inflammatory stimulation, such as poor hygiene habits, acute or chronic vaginitis, bathing in a bathhouse, swimming in a bathhouse, cross-infection when staying away from home, etc., which lead to vulvar inflammation. If not treated in time, the inflammatory secretions will infiltrate the perineum, and long-term infection and stimulation will gradually develop into vulvar leukoplakia.

In addition, women use unclean sanitary napkins and toilet paper during menstruation, which can cause bacteria to grow and spread in the perineum. Some are allergic to chemical fiber substances, which can cause infection and stimulation of the perineum, damage the skin and mucous membranes, and cause redness, swelling, ulcers and degeneration, which may also cause vulvar leukoplakia. Suffering from diabetes, vulvar eczema, vulvar itching, etc., such as abuse of drugs and improper treatment, may also lead to or aggravate the formation and development of leukoplakia. This is also the cause of vulvar leukoplakia.
