I found a spot on the back of my head last week, then found another unfortunately. I haven’t found a spot in years and was pretty bummed to find my alopecia was back. I got the shots yesterday at the…Continue

Hello! So I've had alopecia for a year now with two spots. Both are growing in and the original spot I feel like will be filled in soon ( hopefully ). I was curious if most of you have nail pitting??…Continue

"Gosh I'm so sorry. I can't imagine what that must feel like. I was continuously patchy from 13 until I had my first child at 30. Then all my hair fell out. She is now 18 and I've never had a hair grow back. I imagine it…"
"Hello! So sorry to hear about the new spots you have again. I am here in the group because of my son, always trying to find him new ways of support. He was diagnosed with AA at the age of 25. A terrible shock at that age. Since then he has been…"

"Last year this time my scalp and face were itching a lot and within 9 months I lost nearly all of my facial hair and about 80% of my scalp hair. I only tried a few injection at the beginning but gave up as I saw no results.
About 3 months ago,…"

Alopecia back after 6 years :(
I found a spot on the back of my head last week, then found another unfortunately. I haven’t found a spot in years and was pretty bummed to find my alopecia was back. I got the shots yesterday at the derm, she also prescribed a steroid cream which I don’t believe I used last time. My nails do have pitting which I had last time and it never went away. Is there anything we can do to help keep this at bay? Vitamins? Probiotics? It’s been so long since I’ve had it I don’t really remember what I was…See More
