Suggest Treatment For Alopecia Areata

Hi,I have Alopecia Areata problem since 8 months. I have gone completely bald, and it is completely depressing for a girl. I am taking injections for the same. I have still 2 big patches left in which hair started regrowing but now again I am losing hair. I seriously don t know what to do. Is it because it is winter or what I don t know. My doctor has suggested me, Sebowash shampoo with other medicines. I am getting scared and I seriously don t want to go bals again. Is it the right time to change the doctor?
