What are the typical symptoms of atrophic vulvar leukoplakia at each stage?

Regarding atrophic vulvar leukoplakia, many patients belong to this type, but because different patients have different symptoms, they will be very worried. So what is the difference between atrophic vulvar leukoplakia and other vulvar leukoplakia? The following is the expert's answer, I hope it will be helpful to you.

1: The main symptoms of atrophic vulvar leukoplakia are generally not obvious. Some patients have mild itching, no white lesions appear, and the vulva has atrophy that is not easily detected by the naked eye.

2: The typical symptoms of atrophic vulvar leukoplakia are mild atrophy of the vulva, usually starting from the labia majora, minora, and clitoris. The elasticity of the labia majora and minora is reduced, and the surface wrinkles are reduced or absent. Vulvar pruritus is relatively mild. Due to atrophy, there may be dryness of the vulva and discomfort during sexual intercourse. The vulvar skin is partially depigmented, in multiple spots or flakes.

3: Severe symptoms of atrophic vulvar leukoplakia, generally the labia majora of the vulva are flat, the labia minora disappear, and the clitoris shrinks and becomes smaller or adheres. The urethral opening atrophies, and in severe cases, urinary incontinence occurs. The vaginal opening atrophies and sexual intercourse becomes difficult. Some patients also have anal leukoplakia and atrophy, causing the skin around the anus to have no wrinkles, reduced elasticity, and anal fissures during defecation. About 50% of patients have large areas of hypopigmentation on the vulvar skin.

I believe you have a good understanding of the expert's answer to the above atrophic vulvar leukoplakia. If you suffer from atrophic vulvar leukoplakia, it is recommended that you conduct the corresponding examination in the early stage, otherwise the condition will worsen and lead to difficult treatment.
