Treatment for female alopecia areata, there are ways to stay away from alopecia areata

Female friends all attach great importance to their appearance and cannot tolerate any flaws. If alopecia areata occurs, it is even more unacceptable. Alopecia areata is mostly caused by stress and emotional tension. Alopecia areata can be treated with medication or physical therapy.

1. What are the treatments for female alopecia areata?

1. Photochemotherapy (PUVA) is to apply 0.5% 8-methoxypsoralen (8-MOP) tincture or cream topically, and then irradiate with long-wave ultraviolet light for 15 to 30 minutes each time, 2 to 3 times a week, gradually increase the dose of ultraviolet light, and gradually reduce the number of treatments when new hair grows.

2. Local massage, ultraviolet irradiation, resonance sparks, audio electrotherapy, wax therapy, etc. can be used as appropriate during physical therapy.

3. Tissue therapy involves tissue burial, local burial of catgut, or intramuscular injection of placental tissue.

4. After the nerve blockade is performed on the greater occipital nerve, the skin temperature in the area it controls rises, which is conducive to hair regeneration.

2. How to determine whether you have alopecia areata

1. Detection of human immune function: Detection of human immune function includes determination of interleukin and its receptor levels, determination of lymphocytes and their subpopulations, and determination of cell levels.

2. Pathological section examination of scalp: In the early stage, lymphocytic infiltration can be seen at the lower end of poorly developed growing hair follicles. In the late stage, the volume of the hair follicles is greatly reduced and moves upward to the upper dermis, where usually there are no hairs. The connective tissue under the dermal papilla shows perivascular degeneration. In patients with total alopecia and universalis, the hair follicles are severely damaged.

3. Detection of trace elements in human hair: Hair is the terminal excretory organ of the human body, and changes in its trace element content can directly reflect the state of human metabolism.

4. Head skin microcirculation detection: Microcirculation perfusion plays an important role in the growth and regrowth of hair. Scalp hair follicles are located in the upper part of the subcutaneous tissue, and the lower 1/3 is surrounded by a rich vascular plexus. Hair growth and regeneration depend on adequate nutrition and blood supply to the hair follicles. Studies have shown that the blood flow of alopecia areata lesions is significantly reduced, which directly leads to persistent contraction of capillaries in the affected area, resulting in blood supply obstruction to the hair papilla, loss of nutrition and hair shedding.

5. Testing of endocrine function: Hair growth is directly or indirectly controlled and regulated by endocrine. For example, increased adrenal cortex hormone can cause hirsutism, and testosterone can promote hair growth on the trunk, limbs, beard and pubic area. In addition, the functions of the thyroid, parathyroid, pituitary gland, etc. also play an important role in the course of alopecia areata.

It is very uncomfortable for women to suffer from alopecia areata, because many women love beauty very much, and losing hair is like losing the right to show off their beauty. Moreover, alopecia areata in women is very harmful to patients. In addition to affecting their appearance, it can also lead to the occurrence of other diseases. Therefore, it is very necessary for us to diagnose and treat it in time.
