    I have been working out for the past couple years on and off and my vitiligo hasn't spread more rapidly.

    Hey brian,jiamie.

    I've been feeling down for years about my vit, but in the last year I've changed everything from diet to fitness. I've lost 3 stone in weight and started weight training but I've also seen my vit spread like wildfire! I'm a lot more healthy than I was too....

      I train on and off, makes no difference to my vit, either does diet, though I've always exercised at least an hour a day for last decade or so.

      dont despair! if you read the 2 case studies of Emily and a Dr (cant remember her name) who repigmented through diet etc I seem to remember that they said it went crazy for a while and they were depigmenting as fast as they were repigmenting. I think it took a year before it really got better....so keep going

      I'm pretty sure it doesn't (for me that is). I love going to the gym! It's my number one method of relieve stress, which I believe makes the vit go worse.

    Jeez I really hope not. From my personal experience working out hasn't made mine spread quicker. But I'm just one person so I would scourer the internet for more info. but I haven't read anything that would suggest it either. As jiamie said being depressed if one thing that i have read can make it spread, and regular exercise is a known stress reliever. I've been reading alot about how diet affects vit. hows your diet?

    i dont think there is significance between them as far as i know vitiligo is spreading fast if the person are always depress and sad...
