Sclerosing moss of the vulva is a chronic inflammatory condition that cannot usually be cured, only controlled. Most studies consider it to be an autoimmune disease, and the main symptoms include severe itching of the vulva, painful intercourse, and painful urination. Sclerosing moss of the vulva often occurs in people who wear tight pants or stockings. When the vulva is exposed to prolonged humidity and stifling heat, it is prone to itchiness, and after prolonged scratching and breaking of the skin, the epidermis shrinks and the cuticle becomes hyperkeratotic, resulting in the appearance of mossy white patches. If not properly treated it can cause the clitoris to shrink and the vaginal opening to narrow, leading to difficulty and pain in urination. Drug therapy for vulvar sclerosing moss is based on hormonal drugs, which have limited therapeutic effect. Vulvar laser or autologous high concentration platelet plasma can also be used, and clinical studies have found that these treatments can improve symptoms without the need for steroid creams. Although the disease is more common in women, it can also occur in men, especially those who are circumcised or phimosis, and other high-risk groups include post-menopausal women and those with autoimmune disorders.
