The authors aimed at evaluating the effect of vitiligo on female sexual function and Dyadic Adjustment in a hospital-based study as gender negatively affected the marital quality of vitiligo patients, more in women. A total of 153 patients who applied to the dermatology outpatient clinic of a tertiary university hospital were interviewed. However, 120 vitiligo patients who were married and had a sexually active partner and suitable the inclusion criteria were included in the study. It is seen that the mean score of the DAC is 43.13±5.11, and the mean score of the SQOL-F is 52.57±5.39. Vitiligo has a negative effect on a woman's sexual life and Dyadic Adjustment. Early identification of sexual problems in vitiligo patients and planning their future course of management can aid in improving the marital adjustment and quality of life.

Steroid therapy in the form of an intermittent pulse therapy is a much safer option than daily administration.

Background: Vitiligo is a chronic autoimmune disease manifested by depigmented patches of skin devoid of melanocytes. Baricitinib, a JAK inhibitor selectively targeting JAK1/2, has shown preliminary efficacy for vitiligo. We aimed to assess the efficacy and tolerability of combination therapy with baricitinib and narrowband UV-B (NB-UVB) to treat active nonsegmental vitiligo (NSV).

Vitiligo, a prevalent cutaneous depigmentation disorder, often leads individuals to seek cosmetic remedies such as dihydroxyacetone (DHA)-infused camouflage makeup. Wood's lamp, a common diagnostic tool in dermatology, is typically employed to assess vitiligo lesions, revealing DHA-induced fluorescence in a distinct salmon color, contrasting with the bright blue-white fluorescence exhibited by vitiligo lesions. Erythrasma, a bacterial infection of the epidermis, is known for its unique bright coral-pink or coral-red fluorescence under Wood's lamp.
