Have Alopecia Areata. Suffering From Hair Fall. How To Strengthen The Hair?
Question: i have alopecia areata. my hairs fall out very quickly from roots. can i do something to strengthen my hairs
Hello and welcome to XXXXXXX
Alopecia reata is an autoimmune disease. In this disease auto antibodies are produced against the hair roots.
Auto antibodies are antibodies produced against self tissues.
It is not possible to strenghten the hair follicles in this condition.
The treatment for this condition is primarily steroids. You will need to consult a dermatologist for the prescription of treatment.
If you have more queries, I will be glad to answer.
