    Hi Laurie, I do find initially it’s common to see this at first. Ringworm takes a long time to treat successfully and you will not see an immediate impact. The fur can continue to fall out in part because the fungus was already affecting the follicles before but also because the fungus takes some time to kill. What you should see in the coming weeks is that the fur loss slows down and you should see some signs of new hair growth occurring.

    It’s not a fun disease to treat, but treatment typically is successful with patience and persistence. I hope that’s a bit reassuring.
