Based on a biopsy report recently done on both body and scalp, I have active alopecia areata on both body and scalp. Also, I have male pattern hair loss on my scalp. Lots of hair gone from my legs and hands and chicks. I am from India. Here I have shown to few doctors and one of them suggested minoxidil and finest ride on scalp and Kenacort injection for body. From 5 months I am taking, so far no improvements seen. Now they suggested micro needling on scalp. I am not sure whether this type of treatment really work for Me? I am aiming at to stop this disease activity on my body and then to grow hair back. I read that tofacitinib, ruxolitinib are working for this problem.. But they are in clinical testing stage. I am writing this letter to you because I need advice from experts if I could use the Tofacitinib? Or would you suggest any better Medicine? Please help me I am requesting you. Thanks
