My sister has vitiligo with visible spots on her hands and legs, plus other areas. Her marriage is coming up, and the groom's family wants to see her hands and feet. Are there any temporary ways to hide the spots without using cosmetics since they don't work well? We have around 78 months before the wedding would surgery be an option, or is there a quicker fix?

For temporary spot concealment without cosmetics, consider covering the areas with long sleeves and pants, or use light-colored, opaque scarves or shawls. With 78 months until the wedding, surgery like skin grafting might be an option, but it's not a quick fix. Light therapy, often used in conjunction with other treatments, could be considered.

View allI'm wondering if masturbating once every 5 days could have any effect on my muscle growth or testosterone levels. I've heard mixed things and just want to make sure it's not going to mess with my workouts or hormone balance. Is this something I should be concerned about?

I've been taking BTN ultra tablets to help control my grey hair since my doctor first recommended them back in 2016. I used them pretty regularly at that time, and then again on and off in 2017 and 2018, and I didn't notice any negative effects. My doctor mentioned that if I want to continue using these tablets, it's best to do it randomly, like using them for a couple of weeks and then taking a break. So, I'm wondering if its safe to keep using BTN ultra in this random way in the future. Also, is there any risk of side effects from using biotin mineral tablets long-term, even if its not continuous? I'd really appreciate your guidance on this!
