Where do I begin? About 5 or 6 years ago I had my wisdom teeth cut out and shortly after we noticed that I had some bald spots on my head. We figured out it was alopecia, went to the doctor, and it all grew back. This happened every fall, but it never all fell out and it always grew back. The spring of 2004 it started to fall out again, only this time much worse. I went to a doctor again and got no help. My mother went into the hopsital this fall and was very sick, and this is when I lost all of my hair, we guess fron stress. I lost my hair on my head, my eyebrows, eyelashes, arm hair, leg hair, everything. Since then my arm and leg hair has grown back but that is it. The hair on my head is patchy and very thin in the few spots it is growing. It is not even half an inch long in those spots. I have been unable to do anything about it beacuse I was pregnant, but now that I have had my son I am ready to try things. It is hard to be a 23 year old female who is completely bald ( I do wear a wig though). I still get alot of looks from people because of my eyebrows I assume. If anybody has any suggestion of what to do I am open. I just want to be normal again and have hair. If there is any doctor who specializes in anything like this please let me know, we do not have anybody that knows anything in my area.
