Dear friend,
You seem to be suffering from
Alopecia universalis( hair loss in different areas like
scalp and face) .There are many reasons behind this. One of them is described as autoimmune diseases in which your own immune system starts acting against your tissues. An other important cause is endocrine diseases especially
Thyroid deficiency. Some drugs may also lead to this malady. In other cases the cause may not be recognized. You must consult a good
dermatologist and undergo the required laboratory tests to ascertain the cause.
The various types of treatments available are local medication,
Hair transplant and oral or injectable
steroids.
One such over the counter alopecia treatment is
Minoxidil. This is a topical solution that is rubbed into the scalp and other patches of alopecia, twice a day to prevent future hair loss and stimulate regrowth. It comes in two different options, there's the 2% and 5% solution. When using this solution some people may experience hair loss slow down, while others may see hair loss slow down and also regrowth.
The results are usually seen after around several months of daily use and this will only continue for as long as the solution is used. That is to say, once you stop using the solution your hair loss will revert back to before the treatment was started. As with any medication, there can be potential side effects. So it is always recommended, before taking any medication to consult your doctor.
