Hair Loss Due To Hyprthyroidism. Suggested Kenalog. No Help , Only Indentation On Scalp After Injecting. Right Treatment?
I have lost hear because of hypothirodism not treated then it was necessary because general physician do not report it to the patient and endocrene dr.s do not have the medicine that really works. I went to dermatology and he sugested kenalog. He injected approximately in 10 palces the first time. 3 months have passed and the result no hear but some indentacions in the scalp which size is the width of finger, I consider that it is not a good treatment for alopecia.

Hi i think u are suffering from alopecia areata.it presents as bald patch of hairloss with central exclammatory marks. Kenolog injections is the best available treatment for alopecia areata if given properly.if given deeper enough or larger quantity is given.indentations occur.if they occur stop the treaetment.take vitamin e tablets daily once to decreaee indentation. Use folica hair tincture at night to increase the hair growth which works well
