If you haven't already spoken to your doctor, I suggest that's what you do. This reminds me of my dad's scalp right now, he just had a melanoma cut out and has a patch just like you do :) but obviously that's not what this is. I think seeing your doctor is the best bet. It could be a deficiency of some kind also.

I agree with Shaye. You should definitely go see a doctor, they will be the only one to be able to truly help.

This is not normal. You p robablly should have went to the doctors when it started. it could be Alopecia, ring worm, an immune disorder, some kind of deficiency, whatever but I needs medical attention NOW. the fact that I can't see any new growth (especially since it started in march) is what really scares me. please, go to your doctor. this will only get worse!

Thank you all for your responses. Obviously I need to go to a doctor, I was hoping that would not be the case but I appreciate everyone's input and will update here when I find something out. I'm new to my area so first I need to find a new primary care Dr asap.
Thank you again.

If you live in the US, at least, there should be several walk-in clinics in your area. I would suggest going to one the next chance you get. That much hair loss coupled with a change in overall hair texture could be several serious things. A walk-in clinic will be able to see you same day and do bloodwork to find you an answer as soon as possible. Good luck!

Omg really Lisa that is a HUGE bald spot you should've went to get it checked out long time ago...what are you waiting for?? we are not doctors and your just wasting your time asking here period!!

Some people really have no tact or decency, I swear!! 😡😡 I agree with all of the ladies, particularly Kelly. It definitely could be a form of alopecia, ringworm, etc. Seeking medical advice appears necessary at this point. I know this has to be daunting for you. Praying and hoping you are okay and it's nothing tooooo serious! FYI..your pretty face distracts from it! 😘

Thanks everyone, I appreciate it. the reason I haven't seen a doctor is that this happened to me a few years ago but half as bad and it all grew back. it basically doubled in size over a short timespan and I was hoping someone here had experienced this and maybe it was coming from me doing something wrong when styling my hair or something like that.
I'm aware its a HUGE bald spot. it hasn't been like that the whole time I've had it, and like tonita c. said, I've been hoping its not serious and also kinda embarrassed to talk to someone about this face to face. regardless, I did go ahead and schedule a doctor appointment, so hopefully I will have an answer soon.
I'm going to have to look up what a ringworm is, I hope it is not as gross as it sounds lol.
Thanks again!
