About Me:
I will be 80 in March, mother of 5 and grandmother of 7 and great-grandmother of many. My husband passed away over 5 years ago and I didn't start losing my hair until after that. The doctor thought it was from stress, but I've been under stress all my life. My daughter is now worried that she will lose all of her hair, too. I was told that people are diagnosed with it in their 30s, but I wasn't until my 70s. No one else in my family had it (that I know of). I may post my picture later.
Do you have alopecia?

Hi Alvora,
What an interesting story! I was diagnosed in my 20's. Tell your daughter that there is a VERY SMALL (7%) chance your daughter will get alopecia. I did a lot of research for my book.

HI there, Welcome to the site! It is true that sometimes stress can trigger the hair loss I think!

Hi Alvora,

You remind me of my mom, she is 77 and has started to use the internet.

I wanted to welcome you to Alopecia World. I can honestly say that we are a great community here and I hope you enjoy the time you spend with us. I would encourage you to mingle with us, join a couple of groups or interact in the forums. We would love to hear from you and everybody has something to offer.

Take care, Cheryl
