What ointment to use for vulvar leukoplakia

Vulvar leukoplakia is a common gynecological disease, which is usually treated with hormone ointments, sex hormone ointments, vitamins, and anti-allergic ointments.

1. Hormone ointments: Common ointments include hydrocortisone ointment, fluocinolone ointment, triamcinolone acetonide ointment, testosterone propionate ointment, etc. Hormone ointments can inhibit the immune response under the local skin and promote local pigment absorption, thereby relieving symptoms such as itching and pain caused by vulvar leukoplakia. It is suitable for various types of vulvar leukoplakia, especially for patients with obvious itching symptoms.

2. Sex hormone ointments: Common ointments include progesterone ointment, estrogen ointment, etc. Sex hormone ointments can supplement the sex hormones that are lacking in the vulvar skin and promote the repair and regeneration of the vulvar skin. They are suitable for vulvar leukoplakia caused by sex hormone deficiency, such as postmenopausal female patients.

3. Vitamin ointments: Common ointments include compound vitamin A ointment, cod liver oil ointment, etc. Vitamin A, D and other ingredients in vitamin ointments help improve the nutritional status of the vulvar skin, make the skin thicker and softer, and relieve symptoms such as dryness and desquamation of vulvar leukoplakia. It is suitable for patients with malnourished and obviously dry vulvar skin.
