Several medicines normalize hair growth, but this condition requires a treatment modality that concentrates on the root cause of hair falling all over the body. Here is a case report about the Ayurvedic approach in a 48-year-old male patient with Alopecia Universalis presented with hair loss all over the body associated with itching.
