Abstract

Alopecia can be recognized as a life-threatening disorder. It is a medical disorder wherein hair loss occurs from the scalp, usually in part or all portions of the body. On the other hand, it seriously impairs one's mental health, sense of self-worth, and general quality of life. Numerous factors, such as genetic predispositions, environmental triggers, chemical or medication exposure, dietary deficiencies, severe stress, prolonged sickness, etc., can result in balding. This article has discussed alopecia, including its causes, kinds, and numerous medicinal plants and their parts that are used for alopecia therapy or prevention.
