Happened to me.. I was able to treat mine, although it lasted for almost a year. I was trying all kind of cream and soaps, yet not avail.

Until my mum got a cream and soap and within 2week, (this February), the stuff cleared.

Throughout those times, I was barbing skincut every Friday. I know how much I wasted for barber hand.

I can help you with the cream and soap if you want to
What are their names?

Your help is here.... I suffered from it too Buh got the healing when I used this medication

Anti allergy- Loratadine

Ketoconazole

Them wash your hair with Nizoral shampoo... leave shampoo on your hair for like 30 minutes before washing off
please be careful advising people to take medications without prescription.
ketoconazole should be used only when you cannot use other antifungal medications. Ketoconazole can cause serious harm to your liver that may result in liver transplant or cause death.

Brother, seek the services of a consultant endocrinologist or immunologist...

He will take you through general and specific tests to properly determine the actual cause of such premature alopecia (That's if it is not drug related).

In the meantime, try topical treatments like Minoxidil Solution (Regaine), Castor Oil, and Andrea Hair Oil.

...And Please, keep your hair low at all times. It makes it less obvious.

Am also interested.

I have been experiencing the same situation for about five years now.

How do I get it since its not over the counter drugs.

U can use Regaine on it. It contained minoxidil which helps increase blood supply to the hair follicles and improve growth. It works really well but you have to have patience. At least 2 months before you start seeing changes. Its expensive too. U can get at any H-Medix shop or any good pharmacy

You can't get unless it's prescribed by a doctor, so how can one get without the doctor

Minoxidil Solution is sold over the counter for treating most forms of premature hair loss. Regaine is a very popular brand (Quite expensive tho). It comes as Solution for application, shampoo, and hair foam... If you reside in Lagos or Abuja, check the following shops: Healthplus Pharmacy outlets, MedPlus Pharmacy, Alpha Pharmacy (Ikeja Axis).

Jamaican Black Castor Oil mixed with Andrea Oil does wonders for a lot of guys. They will make a good and massive addition to Regaine treatment.

Supplements rich in Biotin, Selenium, Zinc, and Collagen will equally help from within. E.g. HairFollic for Men (Vitabiotics), Maxi-Hair for men (Country-Life), etc.

I had same experience in 2010.. Just woke up and felt side of my head bald. I took different medication and spent a lot but hair won't grow back. Friends in school teased me and called the bald side memory card space. One faithful day, I was on my way to meet my doctor to explain there was no improvement on that bald part when suddenly a buzu woman ( they're Fulani, very tall with long hair.. Most times they sell tea and local herbs esp. buran tashi - manpower) the woman said she has cure for the bald part and if I also want hair in any part of my body, she has herbs for it. God knows I almost ignored that woman. She demanded for just #200 but I gave her #100 cos I felt it won't work.. Lo and behold, 2 days after I used her herbs, my hair came back. Hair I lost for more than 2years came back after 2days of using that herb. I wish I can meet that woman to appreciate her again.
I just bought it. How did you apply it? You just poured it on your hair?
