There is no real way to tell exactly what’s going on with just the photo alone. I would see your doctor for an exam and diagnosis. I can go out on a limb and say it looks like alopecia areata, but it can also be an infectious process, or repetitive trauma. I’ve also seen stress hair loss similar to this. Please see a doctor.
