Alopecia areata can cause what you describe. See the dermatologist.



Psoriasis can cause this. Is the spot itself kind of scaly? If so, Nizoral shampoo from the doctor works really well (the kind you can get in the shampoo aisle doesn't seem to work that great but it might be worth a try).



stress and certain medications can cause baldness in patches.
