All drugs have risks. These new Jak inhibitors can have serious side effects. They are rare but the risk is there. It all comes down to how badly do you want your hair back? Personally I can not live my life this way , I will never accept it and I will do absolutely ANYTHING to achieve my life dream regardless of what it takes.

It is not irresponsible to create this thread. If you don't want to take any risks then don't. Others do not feel the same way.

I think the most important thing to keep in mind is this: progress is being made. I am so thrilled to know that funding was made available & research is being done - by two of the best Universities in the country: Columbia & Yale! - and, there have been positive results. Of course, there have to be many more, larger trials, and studies on safety, etc. We're still a ways off from a "cure." But, this is encouraging, don't y'all think?

I have to agree with chris. Prior to this I had been prescribed with steroids which were not specifically formulated for AA and now we are again being prescribed with Cancer and Arthritis drug. Furthermore some reviews (in terms of side effects) by users diagnosed with Arthritis is pretty discouraging. Another important question is on the sustainability of the hair regrowth upon treatment completion after being being subjected to the side effects.

I firmly believe that quality of life has to be given priority when considering a treatment for any disorders. In fact Alopecia Areata does have treatment that does show positive progress. From my experince, a treatment called pro-alopeciata helped me to completely recover from Monolocularis. 

Hope to hear more success stories
