Alopecia Areata

[Bulls]

Hello guys.
A very good friend have been diagnosed with Alopecia Areata after he noticed a couple patches on his head with less hair.
Apparently doctors say there is no cure for it. Alopecia Areata is a type of hair loss caused by auto immune disease. The way NHS treats that is to do nothing. Just sit and expect your hair to grow back. But it might never grow back.

After a good read about different vitamins and shampoos we decided to take a look into cannabis oil. There are is not much information about if it can help but only a few articles in blogs claiming that CBD rich oils can help restore the normal function of the immune system and hopefully restore hair growth.

Does any of you has have information that can be helpful? Will be nice to know if anyone has experience with that and if yes what will be the best strain to use and how much oil to be used? Thanks in advance.

Hi mate,

Has your mate tried any of the caffeine based shampoos?

Not as far as I am aware mate. He only found out about the condition few days ago and been to the doctors yesterday. Nothing has been tried yet.

I saw this, but you've probably already seen it...

"Minoxidil lotion is applied to the scalp and can stimulate hair regrowth after about 12 weeks. However, it can take up to a year for the medication to take full effect. Minoxidil is licensed to treat both male- and female-pattern baldness, but is not specifically licensed to treat alopecia areata."

Googling 'Alopecia Areata cannabis' seemed to give some good results?

Yes we've looked into that as well buddy, but reviews and very mixed and we all know how people writing reviews for money these days. Apparently it can help in some cases but then it can happen again as soon as you stop using it or it will appear in a different place.

That was first thing we did but most articles seems to be identical. Reviews and comments under the articles are mixed too.. some poeple saying they will try and never came back to confirm how much and how they used...or maybe we are missing something....that's why I thought I might ask here if anyone has a first hand experience.

Hey bulls , ive got some fermented seewed full of hormones im sure it can sprout a few hairs haha .

Just kidding

Ive been researching Rick Simpson/Phoenix Tears , alot past few years . For skin ailements he recommends a light canna oil of a third wash , just light enough to cover the condition , he recommends Indica dominant as much as possible to make it a more relaxing high , start with like a dose the half of a grain of rice and work it up . It can also be mix with Sunflower lecithin o Coconut oil , coco oil beijg much more available , its got alot of good fats , wich body needs .

Im no expert tbh , maybe go his site , this giu cured his own cancer and others aswell with oil , and whole hosts of other diseases and ailements/disorders
