I am not sure what is going on, but I just had a baby and I have had some repigmentation to my vit which my OB said would happen. I am still having some of the effects of having the pregnancy "mask" which is your skin gets darker. I also bought Dr. Wanakee Hill's book and she suffers from vit and strongly suggest that vit patients have a gluten free diet as it worked for her, along with other natural things. I have started a gluten free diet this week along with taking vitamins and will see if this will work for me. I am going to give it at least 6 mos before I expect too much, but right now I think I am still benefiting from the pregnancy hormones as my skin is repigmenting. The lines on the palms on my hand are returning and spots elsewhere are filling in.. I am very hopeful and I like this approach because it is all natural not too expensive (buy vitamins) and a lifestyle change with my diet. I may blog about it lol! Peace and Blessing to all :-)

Hi Antuana,
I'm so happy to hear about your repigmentation, that's good news!
I agree with you about Wanakee Hill, I have scheduled a phone consultation with her and I too have gone gluten free, amongst other changes as well.
I had the opposite happen...my vitiligo started one year after having my baby boy (who is now two years old).
I hope you continue to get your color back, that's exciting :o)

Hi Antuana, I am a little late but just read your message. Congratulations on having your baby. I hope you continue to repigment, but most of all enjoy your new baby. Peace be with you and your little one.
Hi!
Did you have any luck with Dr. Kee's products? I want to get the creme and boosting oil. I only have vit on my hands right now and all of my fingertips are white and I hear that's hardest area to repigment. I really want to stop the spreading of my vit so I thought about Dr. Kee's products.
