It is a curable autoimmune disease with a high recurrence rate and is genetically related. 100% of patients have varying degrees of sleep disorders, 42% of patients have depressive symptoms, and 20% of patients develop baldness after anxiety, sadness, or grief. The pathogenesis of the disease is that due to the disturbance of the vegetative nerves caused by mental stress, the sympathetic tension continues to increase and the capillaries continue to constrict, resulting in impaired blood circulation to some of the hair roots and ischemia of the hair follicles, resulting in patchy hair loss. The genetic factor plays a decisive role in the susceptibility and severity of the disease.
In my 30 years of clinical research in hair loss treatment, I found that more than 60% of the patients with alopecia are introverted and unstable, sensitive and suspicious. The most prominent manifestation is that there are many patients who come to me with prescriptions from outside hospitals and ask me whether such prescriptions can be used and whether they will have any effect on their health. At the same time, most of the patients I see here also take my prescriptions and go around looking for someone to confirm whether the prescription will affect their health and whether they can be cured. Defective personality with an introverted, emotionally unstable, high apprehension and sensitivity personality is also the reason why treatment is difficult and prone to recurrence.
After the cure of baldness, as the medication decreases, some patients’ psychological ability to withstand it gradually appears, and they are afraid that the decrease in medication will have an impact on the treatment, and they live in fear all day long, constantly pulling their hair every day to see if it will still fall out, looking in the mirror numerous times a day to see if there are any new baldness, etc. High mental stress can promote a series of immune system disorders, mental disorders, and sleep disorders in the body. It is after the baldness is completely cured, once it appears in the psychological factors, social factors, more than the patient’s ability to bear, the phenomenon of baldness hair loss will occur. Therefore having a good lifestyle habit, being cheerful and strengthening physical exercise is the basic guarantee that baldness will not recur. Once you have a relapse, go to a regular hospital for the first time and do not buy any medication on your own, and do not look at advertisements to buy medication. There is no special medicine for the treatment of baldness, and there is no single prescription or secret formula. The dialectical treatment of Chinese medicine is the best treatment method at present, and the mutual trust between doctors and patients can also promote the early recovery of patients.
