alopecia areata is a autoimmune disease characterised by a patchy hair loss mostly over scalp, beard, eye brows, moustaches...... in most of the cases it responds very well. u can consult a dermatologist nearby.

It sounds like you already have a diagnosis. But a visit to a derm will provide you with your options. Some experience success with treatment, others do not. There are many folks who are diagnosed and within a year all hair returns. Visit NAAF (National Alopecia Areata Foundation www.naaf.org) for more information. And the social networking site: www.Alopeciaworld.com is also a wonderful resource that can provide much needed support. I've had alopecia for 25 years myself. To read my story, visit www.2ndnaturehair.com. Best of luck to you!
HI.
in the meantime you can use flutivate cream twice daily. Intralesional triamnicolone injections is one of the most effective and first line treatment. Visit your dermatologist regarding this.
