    TLDR Tailored combination therapy improves non-scarring alopecia outcomes.
    This prospective study of 200 patients with non-scarring alopecia underscores the significance of accurate diagnosis and individualized treatment plans. It categorizes patients into four types of alopecia, with androgenetic alopecia being the most prevalent. The study finds that combination therapy, tailored to the specific alopecia subtype, significantly improves outcomes compared to minoxidil alone. Key diagnostic features were confirmed through histopathological analysis, and the study advocates for a multidisciplinary approach, including hormonal and nutritional evaluations, to enhance treatment efficacy and patient satisfaction.

      Hair follicles can be dormant and potentially revived with treatments like finasteride and minoxidil, but irreversible loss occurs if certain structures are destroyed. Early intervention is more effective, and additional methods like microneedling may help.
