Alopecia areata is the name for a condition in which round patches of hair loss appear suddenly. The hair-growing tissue is attacked by the patient’s own immune cells for unknown reasons. There are three stages: first, there is sudden hair loss, then the patches of hair loss enlarge, and last, new hair grows back. This process takes months, sometimes more than a year, but rarely does the hair never grow back.

Exactly! Talk about patronising!
The reporter is kinda’ve annoying. WOAH TELL ME ABOUT THAT!
Everyone with Alopecia are so strong and brave. Especially these women.
….It’s definitely working. The spots where hair was growing in have started to come in a lot faster! I’d probably have much better results if I actually used it as much as I’m supposed to
But yeah- definitely try the 5% Rogain out on spots where hair is coming in!!! let me know if it helps. [[you can get a container of 4 bottles for $50 from BJs-- it's normally ~$30 a can anywhere else]] and each bottle lasts a whole month
and it’s kind of funny using balding-old-man foam
I’ve been recieving systemic and local injections of (I beleive) prednisone. It definitely helped stimulate hair growth. My doctos stopped with the injections for now becuase my hair loss wasn’t as bad as it originally was (still losing hair in some spots, but nothing was completely bald- as soon as it fell out, it would start coming in again). He instead suggested I start using men’s Rogain 2x a day to get it come in a little faster (has to be the 5% strength)…..
by the way, try testing for heavy metals in your body. I was tested by alternative doctors, and it was found that i had a high level of thalium. If i can SAY there was a cure ( caus i really dont know if THAT was the cure) it maybe was the homepathic medecine i took to get rid of the thalium in my body. Maybe give it a try?
i can just tell you. There is more about you than your hair. And people will love you even though you might not get it back. In that time especially, i noticed who my friends were. And who werent.
it has come back of course. i always have little spots, and some times i notice i have little chuffs of new hair between my long hair. But i dont bother to get worriedn anymore, because i knew, next time, i know what to do, and i know who to count on.
never lose hope.
hey, all i can tell you, is : dont lose hope.
I had AA when i was twelve, i lost all of my hair. I wore headties, hats , but i never dared to wear a wig.. we tried about EVERY THING ! i had no hair left after a year.. we tried homepathic stuff and after about a year i saw grey spots on my head. No one believed me , but a week later it was clearly to been: hair.
I cant tell you what exactly of the million things i took, it was. but my hair is almost 30- 40 cms long now ( im 19 )
If you’ve been abusing your hair (like I have) for four years by pulling and tugging on it and aquired traction alopecia, will it ever grow back? Even after four years or is it gone forever? If it does grow back, how long will it take?
I had Alopecia Areata sence 14 i’am almost 18 i lost EVERYTHING my head hair eyelashes eye brows pueb hair leg arm EVERYTHING lol when i go places ppl think i have cancer and stare at me i had rlly long hair been threw tests after tests they said i’am complety healthy i got all the blood cells and shit i rlly want my hair back havn’t had a g/f in 3 years

Uh god! I’m right there with you. I’m 20 and just got it. I’m getting injections and going to ask for blood tests for iron deficiency, but that’s pretty much all you can do. I just hate that it’s so unpredictable. Damn why couldn’t i just get it where i want it- like on my bikini line?? lol
