Alopecia areata is the loss of hair in circular or oval patches from the scalp or elsewhere such as eyebrows, beards, etc. The bald patches are usually of the size of a five-rupee coin or one-rupee coin. Complete loss of hair may also occur in some individuals although it is not very common. Having bald patches on one’s head, beard and eyebrows can be very distressing.
Alopecia areata is a fairly common skin disorder and about 1 percent of the population is affected at any given time. Unlike other kinds of hair loss, alopecia areata is a reversible hair loss as the follicles ( a structure that encloses the root of the hair) of hair are not damaged. Alopecia areata does not affect patient health in any other way. Few people complain of itching when hair starts falling. There is no physical discomfort associated with it.
Causes of Alopecia Areata:
Alopecia areata is an autoimmune disease. In this situation, the defense cells of the body – because of a misdirected response – start to kill hair follicles producing bald patches. Genetics and heredity perform a vital role in alopecia areata. Patients suffering from alopecia areata very frequently mention a family member suffering from the same condition.
