10 Causes of Vitiligo

10. Alopecia Areata

Alopecia areata is another autoimmune disease that results in hair loss on small and random areas of the body. Just like vitiligo, the origin, cause and potential treatment of alopecia areata are unknown. However, unlike vitiligo, this disease can be partially remedied with hair growth supplements.

Experts think that these two illnesses have a link due to the way they affect the body. Both result in patches of changed skin, both are still unexplored, and both are autoimmune. Specialists believe that we can find out everything about vitiligo if we fully explore alopecia areata and vice versa.
