Does hair grow back after seborrheic dermatitis

I have had seborrheic dermatitis for around 6 months now. I would say I've lost close to 40% density or a little over of my hair. I know the seborrhea is to be blamed because as soon as I started treating it, the hair loss vanished. My symptoms were mild in that it never itched or showed red, and was more like bad dandruff. Will my hair grow back?
