subject: Alopecia Treatment Helps To Balance The System [print this page] Alopecia, or hair loss, is a condition that is not well understood. Sometimes the hair will grow back and other times it is a permanent loss. There are different types which have different alopecia treatment plans. Losing hair in one spot is called monolocularis. Losing hair all over the body is called universalis and totalis is when all the hair on the head falls out.
There are theories as to why this occurs such as wearing hair styles that pull the hair. Chemotherapy can cause it. Men who have an over-sensitivity to testosterone have lost their hair. Sometimes scarring, x-rays, bacterial and fungal infections can be the reason. An auto-immune problem can cause the body to view the hair follicle as a foreign entity and cause it to stop growing or to suppress growth.
A bald spot on the scalp is usually the first sign of alopecia. It is a well-defined area and the skin is smooth and soft with no hair at all growing. Other patches appear after 2 to 6 weeks and the hair may re-grow within a 6 month window of time.
Diagnosis consists of evaluating the patient's hair loss patterns and gently tugging on the hair to see how easily it comes out. Hydrocortisone provides some relief and it can produce hair growth in a 2 to 4 week period. Corticosteriods will promote the hair to grown back but is will fall out again after treatment ceases.
The immune system could have something to do with this disease, imbalances can cause the body to shed hair. Hormone imbalances, auto-immune issues, infections in the scalp, nutritional deficiencies, poor circulation and heredity can be causes of hair loss. Ayurvedic and homeopathic herbal and dietary supplements have shown promising results.
Some of the things natural treatments can do are to teach the immune system to stop rejecting hair follicles and instead protect them. Cell regeneration can promote healthy hair follicles. This treatment can provide the body with fatty acids, amino acids, minerals and essential vitamins for healthy hair. Blood circulation can be improved and electrolytes can be balanced. Hormonal balance may also be promoted.
Using an integrative approach to healing, the body can be healed by balancing mental, emotional and physical elements. Using modern biotechnology, quantum physics, allopathic medicine and ancient medicinal practices such as Chinese medicine, homeopathy and Ayurveda the elements in the body are balanced. Hormone functions are restored, enzymes are unblocked and homeostasis is experienced. The disease patterns can be altered mentally and emotionally.
Alopecia treatment is a matter of finding the right balance for your system to enable it to heal itself without medications that simply mask the symptoms and the problem resumes when they are stopped. Evaluation of your entire body is required to find where the imbalances are and correcting them. Replenishing the body with needed nutrients will bring you back to a healthy body, people have reported hair growth in a 4 to 6 week time frame.
