Patient's question:
Can women with vitiligo get married and have children? Will it be easier to inherit it?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the factors that cause vitiligo are not yet fully understood. There is no unified recognition internationally and domestically, so it is still considered an intractable disease. However, through clinical, pathological, and physiological observations and research, the factors that cause vitiligo can be classified into the following categories: genetic factors, impaired autoimmune function, neurohumoral factors, endocrine metabolic factors, and endocrine disorders, all of which can potentially lead to vitiligo. Deficiency of copper and zinc trace elements in the human body, as well as environmental pollution factors, are also related. Trauma, frostbite, and insect bites can easily trigger inflammatory vitiligo.
