Hello, @pothitos . You must be so worried for your son! Is the hair loss just on his head or all over? I know you’ve seen a doctor because of the blood work that you mentioned. Did the doctor discuss any possible medical conditions that might cause hair loss? And, were you referred to a specialist like a rheumatologist (they specialize in autoimmune diseases). You can self-refer in some cases.
I hope for the very best for you and your son. Please let me know what you may learn. Can you do that?
