I'm 27 and dealing with vitiligo, and I'm currently using Clovate cream for treatment. I just found out I'm 3 weeks pregnant, and I'm worried if I can keep using the cream? Is it safe for my baby? What's your advice?

I've been dealing with vitiligo and have been using tacroz and Melbild for around 11 months now. It's helped quite a bit with reducing my patches. I started off with 0.1 tacroz but now I'm down to 0.03, and use it about 2-3 times a week. I avoid putting it on my legs and only apply it to my arms and scalp. I'm wondering if it's safe to keep using these products like this. I also take a week off every month. Do you think this is okay or should I be doing something different?

Yes You can continue, follow the treatment advised by your doctor,consume balanced diet, you will see results.

I'm really worried because I've been having these tears in the skin below my scrotum and above the anus for about three months. Initially, it wasn't that bothersome, but now it's started itching quite a bit for the past 45 days. I'm using this Konaz anti-fungal cream, but it doesn't seem to be helping at all. What could be causing this, and what should I do to get some relief?

Thats unusual,visit General Physician for appropriate approach.and maintain balanced diet and healthy lifestyle
