Androgenic Alopecia and Homoeopathic Management

Androgenic alopecia, also known as pattern hair loss, affects both men and women and can have a significant psychological impact. This condition is characterized by the overactivation of androgen, leading to shorter growth phases and thinner hair follicles. Homeopathy offers a unique and holistic approach to treating this condition, considering the patient's symptom totality. The article lists several homeopathic remedies for androgenic alopecia, including Lycopodium Clavatum, Natrum Muriaticum, Phosphorous, Vinca Minor, Flouric Acid, and Thuja. These remedies are chosen based on the patient's personality, the cause of their illness, and their symptoms. Despite the availability of other treatments like 5-alpha reductase inhibitors, minoxidil, laser therapy, scalp microneedling, hair mesotherapy, and hair transplantation, homeopathy provides an effective treatment method by considering the patient's overall condition.
