Let me tell you about the causes of vitiligo.

What are the causes of vitiligo

Reason 1: the body of patients with vitiligo can produce antibodies and T lymphocytes, indicating that the immune response may lead to the destruction of melanocytes. The precursor of toxic melanin synthesized by cells themselves and some chemical substances that cause skin discoloration may also selectively destroy melanocytes. In clinical medicine, this reason is rare, in addition to this reason, there is another reason is genetic factors.

Reason 2: mental factors are closely related to the onset of vitiligo. Most patients have mental trauma, excessive tension, depression or depression at the onset or skin lesion development stage. The degeneration of nerve endings in leukoplakia also supports the neurochemical theory. Generally speaking, in clinical medicine, there are many people because of their psychological pressure, leading to more and more toxins in the body can not be discharged, caused by vitiligo.

Reason 3: vitiligo can be combined with autoimmune diseases, such as thyroid disease, diabetes, chronic adrenal insufficiency, pernicious anemia, rheumatoid arthritis, malignant melanoma, etc. The specific antibodies of various organs can also be detected in serum, such as anti thyroid antibody, anti gastric parietal cell antibody, anti adrenal antibody, anti parathyroid antibody, anti smooth muscle antibody, anti melanocyte antibody, etc. If the patient's immune ability is low, then there will be many diseases come to the door, but also cause vitiligo.
