Alopecia Areata
Alopecia areata is considered
an autoimmune disease, in which the immune system, which is designed to protect
the body from foreign invaders such as viruses and bacteria, mistakenly attacks
the hair follicles, the tiny cup-shaped structures from which hairs grow. This
can lead to hair loss on the scalp and elsewhere.
In most cases, hair falls
out in small, round patches about the size of a quarter. In many cases, the
disease does not extend beyond a few bare patches. In some people, hair loss is
more extensive. Although uncommon, the disease can progress to cause total loss
of hair on the head (referred to as alopecia areata totalis) or complete loss
of hair on the head, face, and body (alopecia areata universalis).
Hair
Loss Information
In the contemporary
times, people are becoming more and more conscious about their looks. And when
it comes to looking good, maintaining shiny smooth hair, undoubtedly, becomes
of prime importance. It is here where conditions like baldness, thinning of
hair and loss of hair become a cause of concern.
Causes
In alopecia areata,
immune system cells called white blood cells attack the rapidly growing cells
in the hair follicles that make the hair. The affected hair follicles become
small and drastically slow down hair production. Fortunately, the stem cells
that continually supply the follicle with new cells do not seem to be targeted.
So the follicle always has the potential to re grow hair.

Hair Loss a Symptom of a Serious Disease?
Alopecia areata is not a
life-threatening disease. It does not cause any physical pain, and people with
the condition are generally healthy otherwise. But for most people, a disease
that unpredictably affects their appearance the way alopecia areata does is a
serious matter.
The effects of alopecia
areata are primarily socially and emotionally disturbing. In alopecia
universalis, however, loss of eyelashes and eyebrows and hair in the nose and
ears can make the person more vulnerable to dust, germs, and foreign particles
entering the eyes, nose, and ears.
Alopecia areata often
occurs in people whose family members have other autoimmune diseases, such as
diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, thyroid disease, systemic lupus erythematosus,
pernicious anaemia, or Addison's disease. People who have alopecia areata do
not usually have other autoimmune diseases, but they do have a higher
occurrence of thyroid disease, Atopic eczema, nasal allergies, and asthma.
Hair Ever Grow Back?
There is every chance
that your hair will re grow, but it may also fall out again. No one can predict
when it might re grow or fall out. The course of the disease varies from person
to person. Some people lose just a few patches of hair, then the hair re grows,
and the condition never recurs. Other people continue to lose and re grows hair
for many years. A few lose all the hair on their head; some lose all the hair
on their head, face, and body. Even in those who lose all their hair, the
possibility for full re growth remains.
In some, the initial hair
re growth is white, with a gradual return of the original hair colour. In most,
the re grown hair is ultimately the same colour and texture as the original
hair.
