Suggest Natural Remedy For Alopecia Areata
I have total alopecia areata. Is there any kind of natural herbs that I can take to heal my immune system? Should I see a nutritionist for help? I was diagnosed at 9 and had treatments throughout my elementary and jr high school. I went totally bald at 20 after I got married. I am now 51 and would like to see if it could be reversed at this time. Thanks for your opinion.

Hello
Welcome to healthcaremagic
As alopecia areata is an autoimmune condition and it is a condition that causes a person's hair to fall out.I'd advise you should see a dermatologist and follow what treatment he recommends , meanwhile you can try:
1.Rosemary, which is a useful hair tonic and conditioner
2.Green tea (Camelia sinensis), 2 cups per day, and saw palmetto (Serenoa repens), 100 mg twice a day
3.Good home remedy for alopecia using Onion: Round patches of baldness appear on the scalp when hair fall off in bunches. Onion juice should be rubbed into such bald patches regularly for some time. It will help the hair to grow again.
I guess this should suffice, if you have any more questions , you can write back to me or you can close the discussion and rate me.
Regards,
Dr. Rohit Singh.
