passing Dr. Duan's suggestions:
"I would like you to pass a piece of humble advice to him when you have the chance. Hormone treatment does more damages to him rather than vitiligo itself. Vitiligo is only a cosmetic issue, not life threatening. However, hormone will do very little to improve vitiligo, and more of a disruption to his health, causing various damanges such as:
-- skin: acne, thinner skin layer
-- uneven distribution of body fat (swollen face)
-- depressed immune system (prone to infections)
-- adrenopause (depressed adrenal cortex)
-- osteoporosis (fagile bones) or even osteonecrosis (death of the bone)
...
And the longer he's under hormone treatment, the tougher for Chinese medicine to off-set those damages. Not trying to scare anybody but simply telling the truth."
you have nice day,
