Q&A: Advise from others with Alopecia Areata?
Advise from others with Alopecia Areata?
I found out last week that I have Alopecia Areata. So far I have not had any significant hair loss (I have 4 quarter-sized patches). I did some research and found out that there are several treatment options, both prescription and over-the-counter.
Any personal experiences with either treatment or coping with this condition would be greatly appreciated. If it helps any, I’m neither elderly nor a child.

Read about your bald spot problem. My bro had it too. I know how disturbing it can be. He found a website called curespotbaldness.com and decided to give it a try. To our surprise he recovered. You might want to try it.

I am 36 and have had AA for the past 7 years. It began with just a small quarter size patch, I was not too alarmed. about 3 months later it had gone nuts and I had about 4 spots on my crown that were spreading like wildfire. I went into a panic!! I began to see a derm and began injections. They have helped somewhat but the hair is going to do what it wants and run its own course regardless of what you do. I have accepted this over the years. I had a time when my hair went curly which was wonderful and beautiful but then last fall it began to really fall out again and I lost most of the hair. I wear it in strange little twists now. I think the sun this summer has helped as it is coming back almost in full minus a few little spots. I know it will probably never go away but I figure it does not define me and it is only hair. I have my health otherwise and you have to stay positive!
