I have been losing a small amount of hair on the side of my head
Q. I have been losing a small amount of hair on the side of my head now, since after having my son, which was 11 years ago…. i have tried all types of treatments to help stiumlate hair growth. the patch is currently about 2 inches long and 1 inch wide. do you have any suggestions?
A. Hi there, thanks for your query. From the limited history provided , there might be 2 possibilities. 1) An autoimmune condition called alopecia areata which is a self limiting condition , 2) The other possibility to consider is patchy baldness . I would recommend to see your GP or a dermatologist to get the correct diagnosis and treatment.
