Alopecia Areata Treatment
Alopecia Areata
Get to know "Alopecia Areata"
Alopecia Areata, also known as hair loss in patches, is a disease that can occur at any age and in both genders. It is an autoimmune disease caused by an imbalance of the body's immune system, which destroys hair follicle cells in certain areas, resulting in hair loss or the cessation of hair growth. There are also other factors that contribute to the development of this disease, such as stress, inadequate rest, and genetics. It has been found that 20% of patients with Alopecia Areata have a family history of the disease.
Check if you have Alopecia Areata
Alopecia Areata is characterized by hair loss in specific areas, usually in circular or multiple patches. The skin in the affected areas is not red or scaly like normal scalp skin. There may be some itching, and the disease usually occurs on the scalp, but can also affect other hair-bearing areas such as eyebrows, eyelashes, beard, or pubic hair. In severe cases, almost the entire scalp may experience hair loss.
Treatment of Alopecia Areata
The treatment of Alopecia Areata focuses on stimulating hair regrowth, and medication is the most effective method. It is important to use medication continuously until hair loss improves. If medication is used intermittently, the newly grown hair may not be strong and may fall out.
