Causes of alopecia barbae
Alopecia barbae is in other words alopecia areata, but in the beard region. Alopecia areata has influence on the hair follicles and is an autoimmune disease. The hair follicles can be damaged, which will lead to hair loss.
Commonly, the hair loss occurs in small circular patches, often along the jawline though you may lose all of your beard hair. Alopecia areata does not only lead to hair loss on the beard, but can also occur in other places, such as your scalp or face.
The exact reasons for hair loss in your beard are not certain, but often psychological and physical stress can be found linked to alopecia. Genetics may also play a role: it’s more common in those related to someone with alopecia, asthma or allergies.
Having relatives with an autoimmune condition can put you at a higher risk of developing alopecia barbae. These include type 1 diabetes, lupus and psoriasis. Other viruses and certain medications can also cause hair loss over the entire body.
