mometasone vitiligo

I used mometasone furoate (a topical steroid cream) last night (for the first and ONLY time) on the base of my penis due to a minor skin allergy. Additionally, my wife and I are currently trying to conceive. When my dermatologist gave me the prescription for the mometasone furoate she knew I was trying to conceive and said it was OK to use.

Used mebhydrolin,cetrizine,fexofenadine, for prophylexis,got result but no complete recovery. Taking mometasone masal spray, got result, but not complete respite. How to get rid of it?

I had posted here before about a different condition, but I noticed something the other day that concerned me a little. I noticed that there was some redness on my scrotum and a slight burning sensation. I had been in a thermal pool the day earlier, so I thought it might be something like contact dermatitis. I went to the doctor he prescribed mometasone furoate cream. I haven't noticed any burning sensation as I had earlier this week but the redness has remained.

But my doctor prescribed me to apply mometasone furoate and fusidic acid cream twice a day for 3 days and no moisturizer with a Cafadroxil Tablet. I am bit worried about the dryness and healing part. Over all my skin type is oily. But till now what I have heard after a laser resurfacing moisturizer is must. Please help and let me knw that is use of mometasone furoate and fusidic acid cream is good fpr post laser resurfacing treatment without moisturizer??????

I then went to a dematologist and he suggested that clobetasol is too strong and prescribed mometasone. After more than two months, the mometasone has not made any difference. Can someone Id it from the picture and suggest alternate methods to treat it?

Certain factors that may increase the chance of getting vitiligo can be inherited. In fact, about 30% of vitiligo cases run in families. Statistically, 10 to 20 percent of people who have vitiligo fully regain their skin color. This is true for the those who are young, whose vitiligo reaches its peak in less than 6 months and is located mainly on the facial area.

Vitiligo may be hereditary in some cases. Children of vitiligo affected parents are more likely to develop vitiligo disorder. However, most children will not get vitiligo even if a parent has it. Also most people with vitiligo do not have a family history of the disorder. Large number of inherited disorders are associated with vitiligo.

Is there any truth that Vitiligo may be caused by vitamin deficiencies? I have Vitiligo for over 25 years and have never been tested for vitamin deficiencies. My primary care physician did test my thyroid when I first met him when he noticed I had Vitiligo and I found out I have hypothyroidism. I am being treated for that but I've read that this autoimmune disorder may be caused by vitamin deficiencies and my doctor has never mentioned I should be tested.

After seeing the image, what came to mind is focal vitiligo. Focal vitiligo usually affects certain areas of the body such as the genitals. The well demarcated white patch and the stark delineation between normal and affected skin is noted. Vitiligo is diagnosed after fungal infections , lichen sclerosus, pityriasis alba have been ruled out.

I have vitiligo. It has steadily progressed over the span of 15 years. Do you know of a possible reason for this condition and is there any treatment to slow or stop the progress? I have learned to deal with the attention that I get but it would be nice to have some answers for myself and others when I get questioned about it.

My hubby recently had some skin problems and the dermatologist said it's very minor vitiligo and he gave some ointment for him to use....It's not getting worse these days ,but we are not sure if the med. is working either.... During this period ,he also had semen analysis and everything came back normal.His numbers were OK or little better than the avarage.... I recently had a MC at 11 wks...

I too have vitiligo and never used Elidel. First, this drug is considered a immunomodulator that inhibits t-cell activation and prevents the release of inflammatory cytokines from mast cells. To my knowledge, vitiligo is NOT an inflammatory problem. So why would an anti inflammatory drug work on it. Although vitiligo is an autoimmune disorder and this effects the t-cells, maybe thats why doctors prescribed it.

Anyway some of my facial hair turned white you cant tell and now a couple of hairs in my scalp turned white . My face had 6 vitiligo patches and my lips were starting to get affected . I am now down to just one patch due to narrowband uvb treatment and corticosteroid cream which i have been doing since february this year . my hairs are still white .

How are you? Vitiligo or leukoderma is a chronic skin disease that causes loss of pigment, resulting in irregular pale patches of skin. Vitiligo is caused by a combination of autoimmune, genetic and environmental factors. The location of vitiligo affected skin changes over time, with some patches re-pigmenting and others becoming affected. The traditional treatment given is corticosteroid cream. Phototherapy and chemical depigmentation may also be beneficial.
