The treatment of vulvar leukoplakia starts from the following aspects:

Surgical treatment: Since the malignant transformation rate of vulvar lichen sclerosus is low, but the recurrence rate is high, surgical treatment is rarely used. Local lesion excision or simple vulvectomy is mainly suitable for patients with obvious symptoms and repeated drug treatment is ineffective, especially those with local ulcers or severe atypical hyperplasia found in biopsy. Regular follow-up is still required after surgery.

Drug treatment: Drug treatment can control itching, improve local lesions, and prevent the progression of lesions, but recurrence is common after treatment. Studies have confirmed that 60% of vulvar squamous cell carcinomas have lichen sclerosus. Therefore, it is believed that vulvar lichen sclerosus is related to the occurrence of vulvar cancer and requires long-term follow-up, especially for vulvar lichen sclerosus combined with atypical squamous cell hyperplasia, and the possibility of cancer should be guarded.

General treatment: Wear breathable underwear, avoid wearing non-breathable synthetic underwear, and keep the vulva clean and dry. Avoid eating spicy and allergic foods. Do not use irritating or overheated drugs or solutions to scrub the vulva or take a sitz bath, and avoid scratching the affected area with your hands or instruments. For those with severe local itching, sedatives and antihistamines can be taken for treatment, such as diazepam and diphenhydramine. Cod liver oil, vitamin A, vitamin B, vitamin C, etc. can help improve local nutrition and have a certain effect.
