Hello doctor, i suffered from very severe hairfall some 6 months back. Nw it has come down . But to my nightmare, i recently discovered a bald patch at my back right above the neck. My dermatologist, whom i trust says :it might b alopecia areta. Right now, i m on some vitamin supplements and also prescribed minoxidil 5% by my doctor. I was wondering ,if alopecia areta can b cured through ayurveda. Please suggest

Hello. Alopecia areata is autoimmune disease. A single patch is not to worry. You can get rid off with medications and local injections, in a span of few weeks. Ayurveda is a completely different field, we are allopathic practitioners. But still i may say Ayurveda has something to offer to improve immunity but how drastic are the results we dont know. Meantime we dont even want alopecia areata to start spreading, so you can initiate with allopathy first atleast to get rid of this patch first.
