Thank you for sharing your case. According to the current medical literature, there is no relationship between the use of the biological drug Hyrimoz and the occurrence of alopecia areata. Hyrimoz works by modulating the immune response, which can affect various inflammatory processes in the body.
Alopecia areata is an autoimmune disease in which the immune system attacks the hair follicles, leading to hair loss. For people with Crohn's disease who are being treated with immunosuppressive drugs, there is a theoretical possibility that changes in the immune system could affect the development of alopecia areata.
In this situation, I encourage you to consult with a doctor who can assess your health situation and suggest appropriate steps to manage both Crohn's disease and alopecia areata. If you are unable to consult your doctor, you can use the teleconsultation here:

Good morning, I have been using it for three years and I have noticed a substantial thinning of all the hair, so much so that this morning I was looking for feedback on the Internet. From 4 months I went from one vial to two a month and I feel a further thinning of the hair.
Hi, about a year ago I experienced the same thing - 2 pancakes to the left and right of the chin. Hyrimoz from 2023. Currently, one side has "grown back", the other almost too.
