Dr. Chughtai's personal hair loss story began when she was in college. During treatment for a medical condition, she was prescribed a corticosteroid that caused her hair to fall out. Although this side effect was only temporary, Dr. Chughtai never forgot how it felt to lose her hair. In more recent years, she experienced problems with hair loss once more during the childbirth process for each of her three children. In fact, one of her children also required her services for a condition called alopecia areata, a fairly common condition that attacks the hair follicles and leads to unpredictable, patchy hair loss.
