I would like to add that I’m 46yrs old, married and have 2 daughters. I don’t understand why I may have this because I have never has a STD or anything. I’m so perplexed by it all.
Thanks for listening!

You don't have to have an STD to get vulva cancer. Mine is called Paget's disease,which is cancer. I have had one surgery and most recently using Imiquimod, which is a cream that is a topical chemo. I have had some good results with that. God bless you.

Many women are exposed to HPV and have no symptoms.
Cancers can develop after many years since the time of exposure/infection. Have you asked your doctors if this is a possibility?
