What are the signs of postpartum leukoplakia?

Ask
Hello doctor! I gave birth to a baby 3 months ago but recently I discovered white spots on the cheeks on the palate in the mouth. These white spots just peel off layer after layer but are not painful.
I went to the hospital at the district and provincial levels, but they couldn't diagnose the disease. According to my research, these could be signs of leukoplakia. So the doctor can advise me what the signs of this disease are and are they similar to my symptoms? Hope the doctor will reply soon, thank you very much!

Hello! If the white spots you describe appear layer after layer, but do not cause pain, the doctor does not have enough evidence to conclude that you have leukoplakia or not, because there are also some diseases with symptoms. the same, similar.
