Do they all start with AA?
Hey just wanted to know... What are the Chances of AA turning into AT or AU? Right now I have AA but has anyone started with AA and it turned into somthing else? Im just wundering Because I Really dont want it to get any worse, Im only 11 and im scared that someone in my school will find out and make fun of me, Theres only 3 more days untill school starts and i just found yet another Spot Right dead center just above my forhead :( Im getting tired of having to hide them, Also wundering if anyone has tryed Spurilna and has anything to say about it? Thanks for the replies :)

Mine went AA ages 10-12, then again 16-20. The other times, I had full hair. After having kids and stress in my late 30s, it went AT, AU, then back to AT. At now about 10-11 years. NO ONE CAN TELL!!!! (I am almost 58 now.)
Some say spirulina works. Mix it with juice.
Get some great hats, just in case...start wearing them now and so it looks like just part of your signature style. then later, maybe no one will know it is to cover alopecia! You might even do the same with a cool wig for some days, then use it later if you "have to." Have fun at school!

((((Hugs))))) Have you considered wearing caps or bandannas for the time being? I wear bandannas all of the time now. I find them much more comfortable than wigs. Caps are nice, too! Target and Wal-mart usually have a nice selection of caps/hats.
Don't know if bandannas are allowed in school these days though?

Hey Chantal!
Hmmm - don't know that "spirulina" will do much for your hair - but it does have some other benefits so If you try it I'd like to hear what you think. Who knows - what works for one person may not work for another- I'm all for experimenting ( safely of course) ! For me most mornings -(assuming I don't over sleep)-- I will make a fruit smoothie for breakfast and add a powder that has spirulina in it and haven't notice any hair changes.
I have asked every doctor I have ever seen what are the odds or statistics of AA turning into AT or AU ... and NO ONE has had a answer for me.... only say it is unpredictable. But If if helps - I have had AA for about 20 years and although there are times when it "flares" more than others it has stayed AA. Currently I have about 12 spots... I don't know what will happen in the future but try to take it day by day and for me the steroid topical creams/foam work well so I stick with them.
Hang in there!!
