Hair loss, hair fall treatment and homeopathy

Alopecia Areata & Homeopathy

Homeopathic medicines work wonders in all types of hair fall and especially in cases of premature loss of hair and Alopecia Areata. 

The case photos shown here are of a 10 year old child with Alopecia Areata of the scalp who recovered in just 3 months. No relapses have been reported since being last treated in Sept, 2008.


What is Alopecia Areata:
Alopecia Areata is an autoimmune skin disease resulting in the loss of hair from the scalp and elsewhere on the body. The person's own immune system attacks the hair follicles, resulting in round, smooth bald patches. A person with a family history of autoimmune diseases is prone to develop this condition.

This condition can progress to complete scalp hair loss (alopecia totalis) and/or complete body hair loss (alopecia universalis). Over 5 million people in the United States suffer from this condition. Alopecia Areata occurs in males and females of all ages and races. Its unexpected onset, recurrent episodes, and erratic course have a devastating effect on the lives of those affected.

The general approach of suppressing the autoimmune response with local cortisone creams (steroid) may work temporarily and is limited to the patch only. Relapses are common and the course still remains unpredictable. It has no long-term advantages and does not alter the nature of the disease.

Why Homeopathy from HomeoConsult RD?

Homeopathy, on the other hand, addresses the compromised immune response, family history or genetic predisposition, nature and intensity of the disease as well as inherent factors which influence this condition.It does not consider Alopecia as an external disorder. Treating it locally will usually prove futile and temporary.

We therefore treat this condition using only internal homeopathic medicines capable of regaining lost hair and normalizing the compromised immune system.

Cases treated by Dr. Vaknalli have shown to respond as below
( Over 25 years of clinical obersavations )


  • Reappearance of lost hair in the Alopecia patches
  • Reduction in the number of relapsing episodes
  • Better long term management without the use of steroids 
  • Completely Safe for children as the treatment has no adverse systemic effects 
  • Medicines prove effective irrespective of the extent of the hair loss 
  • Duration of treatment is shorter whent the spots are few and recent 
  • Other treatments do not hamper the action of our medicines

Though we consider Alopecia Areata a stubborn and difficult condition to treat, individuals have a better long term prognosis on completion of our Homeopathic treatment.

Hormonal Imbalance and Homeopathy

Hormonal imbalance in relation to: PCOD, PCOS, Infertility, Facial Hair, Ovarian cysts. (By Dr. Anish Vaknalli)
Case reports show the effects of Homeopathic medicines on DHEA and testosterone in a female with PCOS. Most tests were conducted in the USA, original copies of which are with the patient.

Kindly refer to the levels of DHEA and testosterone. Both these were significantly reduced with homeopathic medicines. The homeopathic remedy indicated in your case may vary depending on the signs and symptoms you present with. Kindly abstain from self-treatment.


PCOS and hormonal imbalance:
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a hormonal imbalance that can cause irregular periods, extra hair on the face and other parts of the body, acne, weight gain and skin pigmentation.

Diagnosis of PCOS can be confirmed by:

Vaginal ultrasound: which may show enlarged ovaries and multiple cysts arranged in the form of a necklace along the periphery of the ovary.

Elevated hormones: Typically levels of DHEA, testosterone and LH are elevated. Women experience anovulation (absence of ovulation) and irregular periods due to these hormonal imbalances.

Elevated Insulin levels: due to insulin resistance.

Understanding hormones which regulate ovulation:

LH & FSH 
Your normal menstrual cycle starts when the brain sends LH and FSH to the ovaries. A surge of LH levels tells the ovaries to ovulate, or release an egg. With PCOS, LH levels are frequently high when the menstrual cycle starts without any LH surge, preventing ovulation.

DHEA
Dehydroepiandrosterone is a steroid hormone that's produced by the adrenal glands (glands located on top of the kidneys). The body converts DHEA to male and female sex hormones, such as testosterone and estrogen. Elevated levels of DHEA result in increased levels of testosterone. Elevated testosterone causes acne and excessive hair growth, which is also known as hirsuitism. Women diagnosed with PCOS may continue to have hirsuitism even after their testosterone levels are normalized due to increased sensitivity of hair follicles to this hormone.

Conventional treatment for PCOS and Hormonal Imbalance:

Birth control pill
The most common form of treatment helps in regularizing your periods with the aid of artificial hormones needed for menstruation and ovulation.

Metformin
Is used when insulin levels are high, typically seen in PCOS due to insulin-resistance.

Laparoscopic ovarian drilling
An invasive procedure in which ovaries with multiple cysts or large cysts are drilled. This aids in the resolution of the cyst and aids ovulation.

Homeopathic scope

Homeopathy can be used in conjunction with the medicines you are already taking or can sometimes be your only choice of treatment for PCOS and hormonal imbalances.

Homeopathic medicines can help in the following manner:
  • Resolve ovarian cysts, aid ovulation and prevent relapses
  • Normalize hormonal imbalance in a vast majority of cases
  • Reduce tendency to excessive hair growth and weight gain
  • Regularize your periods without the aid of birth control pills
