Types of Vulvar Problems
Contact Dermatitis : Contact dermatitis is caused by irritation of the skin of the vulva. It is not always easy to find the cause.
The main symptoms of contact dermatitis are redness and itching.
Yeast Infections : Yeast infections are the most common type of vulvar infections.
Sexually Transmitted Diseases : Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) can affect the vulva.
Genital Warts : Genital warts (condyloma), like warts on other parts of the body, are caused by human papillomavirus (HPV). They often are spread through sexual contact.
Genital Herpes : Genital herpes infection is caused by herpes simplex virus. It can be spread through sexual contact.
Problems in Other Areas : Problems that affect other parts of the body also may affect the vulva. Psoriasis, for instance, is a skin disease that can appear on the vulva as red, thick, scaly patches that may itch.
Vulvodynia : Vulvodynia means "vulvar pain." The symptoms of vulvodynia include burning, stinging, irritation or rawness.
Vulvar Dystrophy : A vulvar dystrophy is abnormal skin on the vulva. The skin can be too thin (lichen sclerosus), too thick (hyperplasia), or a mixture of both.
Vulvar Intraepithelial Neoplasia : Vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia (VIN) is a type of precancer. Precancer means it may turn into cancer if it is not found and treated early.
Invasive Cancer : Invasive cancer of the vulva occurs most often in areas of the vulva where there is chronic inflammation or VIN. Symptoms include itching, discomfort and bleeding.
Melanoma : Melanoma is a form of skin cancer. During a vulvar self-exam, look for changing moles or dark spots on your skin that have edges that are not even.
Finally - The vulvar self-exam can help alert you to vulvar problems. Talk to your doctor about any changes or symptoms you notice.
