TLDR Ayurvedic treatments improved alopecia areata symptoms.
The document discussed a case study involving a 41-year-old female patient with Indralupta (alopecia areata), an autoimmune disorder causing spot baldness. The study explored the effectiveness of Ayurvedic treatments, specifically Pracchana followed by Bibhitaki Lepa, in managing this condition. Pracchana, a procedure to clear obstructed hair follicles, was used alongside Bibhitaki Lepa and internal medicine. The treatment resulted in significant improvements, including reduced patch size and decreased hair fall, suggesting that these Ayurvedic methods could be a promising alternative to modern medicine for treating alopecia areata.
