10 Months After Tuberculosis Treatment, I Have Bald Spots
(female)
I was treated for TB last year I was on treatment for double the time I have read is recommended. Now 10 months after treatment I have bald spots atthe nape of my neck and on my crown. My hair started thinning when before I was dignosed but when I was ill – my hair went from thick to fine. Is there anything that I can do to turn this around.
Thanks
Hair loss from stress of an illness is more likely reversible, but it may take up to a year for you to notice any difference. Aside from this waiting game, you can see a doctor for a diagnosis and a possible treatment plan (because your hair loss may not be related to TB). I’ve written about this in the past here.
