Current evidence suggests
that alopecia areata is
caused by an abnormality
in the immune system.
This particular
abnormality leads to
autoimmunity, a
misguided immune
system that tends to
attack its own body. As a
result, the immune
system attacks particular
tissues of the body. In
alopecia areata, for
unknown reasons, the
body's own immune
system attacks the hair
follicles and disrupts
normal hair formation.
Biopsies of affected skin
show immune
lymphocytes penetrating
into the hair bulb of the
hair follicles. Alopecia
areata is occasionally
associated with other
autoimmune conditions
such as allergic disorders,
thyroid disease, vitiligo,
lupus, rheumatoid
arthritis, and ulcerative
colitis. The diagnosis or
treatment of these
diseases is unlikely to
affect the course of
alopecia areata.
Sometimes, alopecia
areata occurs within
family members,
suggesting a role of genes. But there is an herbal cure for it, just contact me on jonathanosward@yahoo.com

Thanks Doc-osward really appreciate it.
