Abstract: Khalitya is considered under Kshudra Roga by most of the authors of classical Ayurvedic texts. In existing system of modern medicine; there is no proper intervention to manage androgenetic alopecia. There have been several treatments for Androgenetic alopecia like, finasteride, flutamide Minoxidil, Dithranol but they have lot of side effects like oligospermia, hypertension, skin thinning and these patients complaint of spontaneous remission after stopping the treatment. In Ayurveda classic, symptoms of alopecia correlate with Khalitya.
