Question
Hello doctor,
My vulva often appears milky white, thin like dandruff at the hairline around the edge of the big lip, not itchy but looks very unsightly. If I remove all the plaque, it will burn, if I go to the doctor to get tested, there is no fungus. So the doctor asked me if the vulva has white, thin plaques, which are the symptoms of what disease? Thank you doctor.
