About alopecia areata
   I am currently diagnosed as alopecia areata. Is there any way to know weather it will covert into alopecia totalis or universalis ?
Alopecia areata prognosis is different for each person. When a bald patch first develops, it is difficult to predict how it will progress. alopecia areata behaves in a different way in each person. There are no symptoms before bald patches appear, and no diagnostic test to know weather it will covert into alopecia totalis or universalis.
   What about extensive alopecia areata where greater than 50 percent hair is lost?
Herbal treatment definitely helps in such patients. The success rate is high compare to other treatments, however duration of the treatment varies from person to person. We had seen in our clinical practice that some patients got faster recovery but some took much time to respond herbal treatments.
   I am a patient of alopecia totalis / alopecia universalis. Will herbal therapy work for me ?

Alopecia totalis and alopecia universalis are extreme stage of alopecia areata and there is no 100% guaranteed perfect cure for it.

We do not recommend herbal therapy for those patients who have had history of alopecia totalis/ alopecia universalis since last 3 years or more time.

We do recommend to try herbal therapy for minimum 12 months for those patients who are newly diagnosed with alopecia totalis/universalis. After completion of 12 months therapy, if we find some positive results, we recommend to continue the therapy however if we find no results after 12 months , we recommend to stop the therapy.

It is not well understood how herbal therapy gives result in few cases and not in others. The perfect pharmacological action of herbal therapy is yet not known.

Miscellaneous
   Which shampoo is best for my hair ? Using shampoo is harmful ? Is herbal shampoo better and safe option ? will you provide me shampoo as a part of my treatment ?

It is really difficult to give the perfect answer of which brand of shampoo is best for your hair. Shampoo is a HAIR CARE product which is prepared to wash your hair and removal of oils, dirt, dandruff, environmental pollutants and other contaminant particles however some harsh shampoo also can remove the natural oils (sebum) which is necessary to lubricate the hair shaft.  Some companies use "all-natural, 100% herbal, organic, botanical” words for marketing their products but The effectiveness of these organic ingredients is disputed. it is very difficult to prepare 100% chemical free herbal shampoo. The fact is that there are no shampoo that can stop or reverse hair loss. It is advisable not to change the brand of shampoo so frequently and stick to one brand which suits you.  We do not provide any shampoo as a part of our treatment. There is no need of specific brand of shampoo during our treatment. Patient can use any suitable brand of shampoo with herbal therapy.

   Can Hair Loss Be a Sign of Other illness?

Yes, hair loss can definitely be sign of other medical problems too.

If you have always had healthy, thick hair that grows in a normal cycle, a sudden loss of hair or hair thinning can be a sign of stress or illness.

Malnutrition, Anemia, Hyperthyroidism and Hypothyroidism, Hormonal imbalance, Systematic Lupus Erythematosus etc. are example of few medical conditions which triggers hair loss.

Sudden hair loss is never a good a sign. And, although many natural causes exist for this condition it is best to see your doctor immediately after the hair loss starts to rule out any serious medical condition.
