The term Alopecia is derived from Greek word ‘Alopex’ meaning ‘fox’ as this animal sheds its coat twice a year. Alopecia may be permanent (scarring or cicatrical) being accompanied by loss of follicles or temporary (non-scarring) wherein the follicles are not lost. Follicular openings without hair shaft are seen in cases of non-scarring alopecia. Follicular openings are absent in areas of scarring alopecia. Male pattern baldness or androgenic alopecia is the most common type of hair loss seen worldwide. In 21st century due to modern day trends of ostentation i.e. attractive appearance the importance of effective treatment in alopecia has gained tremendously. Till the date, other medical faculties fail to give effective solution for it. So this is one of the genuine attempts to show efficacy of homeopathy in treating alopecia. There are basically two different thoughts regarding alopecia in medical fraternity. Some think that androgenic alopecia is a physiological phenomenon while others think it is an abnormal phenomenon which needs definite treatment. Androgenic alopecia is a commonest form of hair loss in men, this condition is also known as male-pattern baldness. Hair also thins at the crown; often progressing to partial or complete baldness.
