Conclusión
Ginseng shows early promise for alopecia areata with all studies reporting positive findings, but the evidence is still limited to a small number of studies and requires more clinical research to confirm.
- All 4 studies report positive effects, but the total evidence base is small
- Korean red ginseng has been specifically tested in one controlled clinical trial for alopecia areata
- Ginsenosides may support hair growth through cell proliferation and immune modulation
- More and larger clinical trials are needed before strong recommendations can be made
