I wanted to ask a question to the other males on this forum who have taken Accutane in the past, or are currently taking it.

 

Has anyone else experienced patchy loss of their beard hair? If so, did it grow back? I believe this is called alopecia areata.

 

This is happening to me, and it is the most frightening side effect for me. I don't want to stop taking Accutane, but this beard hair loss is really scary.

 

thank you

I have not noticed any beard hair lost. Maybe because I am asian and I can't grow one. My right eye is getting blurry though.
