Suggest Treatment For Alopecia In Men

I have recently become a victim of alopecia theres a patch in my head that has become bald and i came to know about this last month. What should I do? I am 27 years old and baldness is not inherited in my family. My dad still has hair and none of my uncles are bald either.

Hi
According to your complaints it seems to be alopecia areata.
I would recommend you to apply topical steroid like clobetasol propionate lotion on the affected areas twice daily for 3-4 weeks.
