Is Leukoderma heriditary.?

One of my friends is going to marry.

But he is worried that the girls mother has

Leukoderma skin condition.

Though the girl does not have it, he is afraid if

his offspring will inherit the disease.

Is there medical proof of this?

Thanx all!

Exact cause is unknown. There is no proof of its being hereditary, but a predisposition of this kind cannot be ruled out. Occasionally more than one person may be suffering in the same family. . Dietary deficiency of proteins and cuprominerals are the major contributing factor, Castro intestinal disorders like Chronic amoebiasis, Chronic dyspepsia, and intestinal worms also may cause. After use of antibiotics like Chloremphenical, streptomycin it may occur. Trauma or local irritation caused by wearing the sari or pants do produce it in individuals predisposed to it. Acute stress, Endocrine disorders also may cause them. Auto immunity also a contributing factor.
