My sister, also now in her 40s, got alopecia universalis when she was 17. Truly tramatic to a teenager.

The treatments at the time were mostly steroids, which did not help and caused all sorts of other problems.

This is an immunosuppressant, so I am curious at the long term implications of this. The current list of side effects is pretty scary.

Yeah, for sure. I would imagine for those that have learned to live with it, the side effects won't be worth the benefits.
