Hello everyone!
I have had alopecia universalis for 9 years now (since I was 14, I am 25 now). I have tried everything under the sun, from ointments, injections to natural remedies, nothing worked and I have been wearing wigs for years. But 6 months ago I visited a doctor who prescribed a medication called "Baritava". It has been 6 months and I can say it has worked so much better than I could have imagined.
-Full head of hair (growth started within 2 months and I have 4 months of length in hair growth now)
-Eyebrows and eyelashes (eyelashes are almost fully back and I have full eyebrows now)
-Body hair slowly returning
The best part is, it is 1 pill a day, which can be taken on a time you decide (but you must stick to the time you chose everyday), you can take it on a full or empty stomach and you do not have to take it forever (Dr. said for a year then we lower the dose then I can get off the medication).
Like any medication in the world, it has possible side effects so every few months you will get tests done, I have not experienced any side effects and my tests turned out good everytime.
I think it is worth talking to with your doctor's and see what they have to say about it.
Let me know what you think!
