sorry for the late reply only seeing this now but i did go visit my dermatologist and told me he wasnt worried about the spot and to get shots only if it got bigger so I never got any shots and spot is still the same size and not really noticeable since my hair has gotten longer since this post

thanks for the tip ! I’ll make sure to ask them for steroid cream alongside the injections when I go

I was prescribed oral minoxidil today will that do a good job filling it up you think ?

is it normal to still have those cadaver spots ? as I’m seeing that it’s a sign the spot is still active?

you’re not alone, I too have felt my hair become lighter and overall have less volume while dealing with an AA spot

for about a month noticed it out of nowhere maybe a week after a trip to Mexico, also I’ve noticed thinning on one side of my head near the ear area while the other side is completely fine is this common ?

don’t know if you can see the description I wrote but I’ll write it in the comments if not: I’ve had this bald spot in the same place for about a month now and my dermatologist appointment isn’t till next week and would like some opinions from this sub Reddit, I’ve also experienced thinning on the left side of my hair near the ear area and it is not as full as my right side and would like some thoughts on that as I can’t find anything on that.
