Hi there,
The exact cause of transmission of leucoderma is not known. Children of parents where one or both have leucoderma are only at a fraction of a higher risk than the general population. The risk of transmission in general population is 1-2 %. This means that people with no family history for generations, also has a chance of 1-2 % of developing Leucoderma without any obvious cause. I do not foresee any problem in future. It is best to consult a qualified health care practitioner and get your doubts clarified. I hope it helps.
Take care and regards!
