The cause of the appearance of albinism symptoms
Disease description:
Recently, I've been afraid of exposure to sunlight, and the hospital diagnosis confirmed albinism. Could you please explain what causes the symptoms of albinism?
Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Liu Wan
The main causes of albinism symptoms are as follows:
1. Heredity: Albinism is caused by congenital abnormalities in melanin within the body. Any abnormality in melanin production during development can lead to pigment disorders and trigger hypopigmentation diseases;
2. Gene mutation: Abnormalities in genes during embryonic growth and development;
3. Consanguineous marriage: This can increase the incidence rate of albinism.
