H Pylori and Alopecia Arearta
Posted: Wed Oct 29, 2014 1:19 am
Hello,
The Urea breath test was positive, and I am losing hair. I asked to my doctor why I am losing hair but his answer was that it is genetic, I told him that no one in my family have or had baldness problem. I found an article online from the World Journal of Gastroenterology about alopecia areata after eradication of Helicobacter, it does not mention any treatment for alopecia arearta after eradicate H Pylori.
I am writing this to know how many persons with H Pylori lost hair, and hopefully my hair regrow after eradicated H pylori. I will be taking pictures of my hair before and after for further reference.
