Lupus of Hair
Lupus is an autoimmune disease that primarily affects women. It is distinguished into discoid lupus erythematosus (DLE) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).
It can be found in various parts of the body such as the skin, joints, lungs, and internal organs. Very often, it also appears on the scalp, resulting in hair loss.
It’s a condition with flare-ups, but reducing the symptoms can lead to the regrowth of the lost hair.

How is the disease diagnosed?
Diagnosing lupus on the scalp is challenging for the dermatologist, as the symptoms and progression of the disease vary from person to person and often resemble other conditions.
