The Role of Homeopathy in Alopecia Areata A Literature Review
Dr. Rohan Mishra, Dr. Sonia Mishra
Alopecia Areata (AA) is a chronic, cell-mediated autoimmune condition characterized by patchy, non-scarring hair loss on the scalp and other hair-bearing areas. Conventional management relies heavily on topical, intralesional, or systemic corticosteroids, as well as modern immunosuppressive agents like JAK inhibitors. However, potential adverse effects and high recurrence rates prompt many patients to seek alternative approaches. This review synthesizes current homeopathical concepts, observational evidence, and clinical literature regarding the role of individualized homeopathy in managing Alopecia Areata.
