While it may not be a fungus, I have experiened a higher susceptibility to fungal infections on my skin. It makes me wonder if skin biome composition interacts with fungus differently

If anyone would be so kind as to answer this question. I know everyone’s spots are different and unique, but was just getting a sense of an idea on what’s going on with my hands.

I got vaccinated in May 2021 with my first dose and by the end of July 2021, I noticed a sudden flare up and rapid progression.

I don’t have an answer but it’s a great question-anybody Know?
I have been using it for two months now. I apply it two times a day. I also do light treatments for some areas. I was hoping others could share their expereinces.
I am using daily. 2x a day. It has helped the eyebrows a lot since this post, but my cheeks continue to see depigmentation in areas of application. What light do you use?
Here is a link to what I believe is the best video on youtube with the latest and greatest details on current and up and coming vitiligo treatments as well as recommended vitamins and their… read more
