Males' cases

Alexander M. 22 years old
suffered from Alopecia totalis.

His eyebrows and eyelashes started to fall out also. (It could be considered as an initial stage of Alopecia universalis).
Alopecia totalis developed after several months of prolonged stress. 70% of the hair of his scalp was lost during 5 months.
Treatment was started six months later after the onset of the disease. As the treatment was started in proper time the disease did not evolve into typical Alopecia universalis.

1. Hair condition at the moment of his first visit to the hospital
2. Nine months later he regained all his scalp hair. However his eyebrows and eyelashes started to grow back one year and a half later after beginning of treatment.

It is interesting to note that after the regrowth his hair became rather wavy and was not so dark as before. This hair condition has remained since 1983.
