[Concern] I am in my late 40s and have alopecia areata.

I am a man in my late 40s who is employed.

We have been married for 20 years.

I have been working in the workplace for over 20 years.

It's a job involving dealing with people and the service industry, so there's a lot of stress.

My father's side has hair loss, and he has had alopecia areata since before the vaccination.

After experiencing severe stress at my previous job, I started losing hair, and it has been getting worse gradually.

First, I get a good massage and use hair loss shampoo, but it's not easy.

They say it's best to go to a specialized dermatologist quickly for treatment, but I'm worried.
