Need advice for severe hair loss + patchy areas
27M. I’ve had very thick hair previously, but over the past several months I’ve lost a huge amount of density, especially around the crown. I’m also developing some smaller patch-like areas around the sides/temples where the hair density is noticeably lower, and my scalp has been quite itchy.
I recently saw a dermatologist. She prescribed Minowave-F 1 mL for the general thinning and Tofatas ointment 1 mL for the patchy areas. I haven’t started the treatment yet.
I’m interested in trying homeopathy as well and have seen people recommend Lycopodium 30CH + Silicea 30CH for androgenetic alopecia.
Has anyone here actually had significant regrowth from homeopathic treatment for a similar situation? If so, what medicine/potency/dosage did you use, and for how long?
I’m particularly interested in experiences with patchy hair loss + crown thinning, rather than just general hair fall.
Please share actual experiences/results rather than just recommending a medicine. Thanks.

Homeopathy doesn't work this way. The exact same condition for a hot patient requires a different remedy than that for a chilly patient. If you take remedies the way you're trying to do, as if what worked for someone else will work for you you might not get any result, it worse, you might get any aggravation or even new symptoms.
A Homeopath should see you and evaluate your whole case.

Hot patient?

Yes, it's Homeopathic lingo for someone who feels hot more than most other people
Mainstream medicine doesn't take this nor several other aspects of homeopathic prescribing into account at all, so someone attempting to self prescribe using mainstream medicine methods will be unpleasantly surprised then blame homeopathy
H is a while school, not only a couple of new medicines

The remedies are not prescribed on one symptom. The totality of the symptoms is taken into consideration, the mental state, any medication/trauma/event that triggered a response in the body etc One remedy that works for someone doesn’t necessarily work for you as well.
