What does brittle vulvar skin mean?

There is no such thing as brittle vulvar skin, but rather atrophic vulvar skin, which is prone to bleeding when rubbed or touched.
Vulvar skin atrophy is common in postmenopausal women, when ovarian function decreases and estrogen content is insufficient, the local skin loses the nutrition of estrogen and atrophy occurs.
Under the stimulation of sexual life or due to the influence of local excessive friction, the vulva and vagina will have burning, pain and even bleeding, which will seriously affect the daily life and can be standardized under the guidance of physicians.
If women have vulvar lesions such as vulvar cancer, local skin abnormalities may also occur. It is recommended to go to the gynecology department of the hospital in time, complete the relevant examinations under the guidance of doctors to exclude malignant lesions and take standardized treatment, and usually pay attention to wearing loose underwear to reduce local friction, and have regular medical checkups.
