White vulvar lesions, also known as “vulvar dystrophy” or “vulvar leukoplakia”, are characterized by prolonged vulvar itching. There are some differences in the symptoms of white vulvar lesions caused by different causes. Hyperplastic dystrophy: It occurs mostly among middle-aged women. The lesions are extensive and may itch from the labia majora and interlabial sulcus to the clitoral prepuce, sometimes even unbearably itchy. If the skin is inadvertently scratched, the pain is further aggravated. The lesioned skin is usually symmetrical and has a thick, leather-like feel. White patches may be seen in the pink or dark red lesioned skin. Sclerosing mossy dystrophy: Women around the age of forty are most likely to have symptoms of sclerosing mossy dystrophy. Compared to hyperplastic lesions, this type of lesion is less severe, but the lesion area may still itch frequently. In the advanced stages of the lesions, there may be difficulty having intercourse. A small number of younger girls may also have this symptom, mostly as a result of discomfort in the vulva after defecation and discomfort around the anus. After puberty, the symptoms will subside on their own. Mixed dystrophy: The strange itching appears near the whitish area of the philtrum, and there may also be skin elevation and thickening. If the above symptoms are manifested, it is possible that you are suffering from white vulvar lesions, and the majority of women must go to the hospital for timely examination and take targeted treatment measures if necessary.
