Hello my name is Izabela im 23 years old and Iv realised couple bald patches on my scalp about 2 months ago .. when I realised one of my patches just above my ear thats when I started to check my whole head and thats when I found another 3 .. 1 just behind my other ear and 2 behing just above my neck and also 3 little tiny once the size of a pea but they hasn't got bigger but hair is growing back.. the hair is veeerryyyy slowly growing back so basically as soon as I got the patches the hair started to grow back ... the reason why Im writing on here is because I want to hear from people who have experienced the same thing as me .. it was so hard when I realised I have bold patches I was so down and depressed .. crying worried I was sick or I was going to loose all my hair .. its scary because doctors dont really help you ... my doctor told me it could be because of stress .. I have been stressed out for over a year during to my IBS ... however after this patches I started to not bother about it and Im not stressing about it not more .. dont know if that could be the couse or not but I would like to hear some of your stories.. has the gair grow back and you never had it again? Or you had? .. how you was dealing with it ... atm Im good Im trying to live with it and waiting for hair to grown back but I just wish it never comes back.

Alopecia acts differently on every individual. No two stories will be alike - except to realize that alopecia can't be cured.

Your hair might grow back on its own. It might grow back with the use of steroids. It might never grow back. It might continue falling out. Doctors can't help because they don't always know what to do as everything known to do is an experiment.

I went 17 yrs between my first episode of alopecia and my second episode when I lost every hair on my entire body in a metter of weeks. Within the past two years I have also developed granuloma & vitaligo - which are also autoimmune skin disorders - so my doc calls it the tri-fecta of skin diseases. My experience is unique to me, and unlike anyone else here.

I also am able to accept what has happened and choose not to try treatments - which I could end up with worse consequences. I just put on my wig or scarf, cover my body and go about my daily life.
