I'm really feeling overwhelmed because I've been dealing with Vitiligo for 12 years now, and nothing's working. I've tried homeopathy treatments but haven't seen any improvement. It's really frustrating. Is there something else I should be doing or a treatment that's better for managing this? I just want to understand my options and find something that might actually help.

Vitiligo can be challenging to cure, and homeopathy may not have been effective in your case; consider consulting a dermatologist to explore other treatment options, such as phototherapy (narrowband UVB), topical corticosteroids, immunomodulators, or skin grafting, which may help stabilize or repigment affected areas, and also discuss combination therapies and emerging treatments like JAK inhibitors.

I've been hitting the gym regularly and for the past five months, I've added whey protein supplements to my routine. I'm averaging about 50-70 grams of protein a day. Ever since I started, I've noticed a major hair fall situation. Could this be because of the protein I'm taking, or is there something else going on here? Also, what can I do to get my hair back to its normal state or encourage regrowth?
