An expert in Medicine has told me about this cure. The result is 80% positive. The whole procedure is like stem cells r transplanted into AU patients. These cells r taken from bone marrow or umbilical cord. I myself dont know much about it thats why I wanted to know from others here.

Stem cell transplant is a treatment for Leukemia, they are not going to offer you anytime soon

There are several places in the US that are doing trials on this. I think they are mostly commerical vs. research organizations. One was in FL. And it wasnt a full stem cell transplant but a limited stem cell transplant to try to target only hair follicles. I read about them a couple years ago, havent seen much on it since so Im assuming it wasnt a commerical success, I dont know. There is of course the old study on the stem cell transplant who recovered from AU or whatever after his marrow transplant. That seems to make perfect sense to me given the autoimmune nature. However, most doctors are not willing to risk killing patients to regrow their hair, nor are insurance company eager to pay millions in the quest either, so those are out, but if you look up for limited transplants repost what the results were.
