Get a Scalp Biopsy! – Hair Loss Information by Dr. William Rassman

(female)
Could you please make sure you tell everyone to get a Scalp Biopsy in all of your replys. It took 3 years of different “doctors” before I asked for one. Immediately it determined what type of Baldness I had and I was given appropriate drugs for the diagnosis. Many thanks

Some women have telogen effluviums, diffuse alopecia areata, and other conditions. The use of scalp biopsy for some women is part of the diagnostic work-up. Be sure that the doctor who does it is a dermatologist and works with a good dermatopathologist who knows how to read what he/she sees under the microscope.
