    There are two types of vitiligo; generalized and segmental. Generalized vitiligo is when the patchy white areas are often symmetrical, flat, have definite boarders and may spread to any part of the body. The segmental type of vitiligo is white patches that usually stay on one side of the body. For some people, like Michael Jackson, it spreads over the entire body.

On average a person would obtain Vitiligo by the age of their mid-twenties, but it can still appear at any age. The disorder affects both genders equally, neither favoring men nor woman. The same goes for race; there has been no race that is proven to be more acceptable to this disease. However it is more noticeable in people with darker skin. Scientists have made a connection between Vitiligo and with certain autoimmune diseases, including adrenocortical insufficiency (when the adrenal gland doesn’t produce enough of a hormone called corticosteroid), hyperthyroidism (an overactive thyroid gland), pernicious anemia(a low level of red blood) and alopecia areata(patches of baldness). Vitiligo also sometimes runs in families. If a child’s parent has the disorder they are more likely to develop Vitiligo, but more times than not the child will not acquire it.…
