Your B12 and Vitamin D levels are definitely on the lower side, and while the supplements you mentioned can help, the dosage, duration, and absorption need to be personalized—especially with vitiligo and a vegetarian diet.
In such cases, I usually also look at gut health, other deficiencies, and specific dietary triggers that may affect pigmentation recovery. A structured plan can make a big difference here.
If you’re open, I can review your reports in detail and guide you with a complete diet + supplement plan tailored for vitiligo management.
