I think I am experiencing alopecia on an area of my scalp. How can I go about resolving this issue?

If you suspect that you have alopecia (hair loss), it is best to consult a doctor to determine the exact cause. Alopecia is often linked to an autoimmune reaction where the immune system mistakenly attacks hair follicles. Treatment may involve cortisone creams prescribed by a doctor. It is also important to note that hair can often grow back within a few months, but this may not always be the case for everyone.
