BALDING (ALOPECIA) What causes Alopecia?

0

Alopecia areata is a form of hair loss that is thought to be an autoimmune disorder in which the immune system of the body, as a result of an abnormal gene, mistakenly treats the hair as if it were a foreign invader. The condition is not caused by any microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses or fungi (therefore it is not contagious) and there is no good evidence that alopecia areta is brought on by either stress or chemical exposure.
