Hair regrowth

I am happy to report I've had approximately 1 1/2 inch of hair regrowth since May.  Keep the faith!  Anything is possible.

Hi,  I took oral predisone for 6 weeks.  I took a month off work to relax and went to a couple of spiritual retreats.  I started taking a low dose thyroid medication because my thyroid tests were borderline low.  My Ferritin level was borderline low, so I started taking one iron tablet a day.  I experimented with a gluten free diet, but wasn't alway perfect on it. I also started taking biotin for hair, skin, and nails.  I used coconut oil on my existing hair.  I am not sure if any of these things actually helped.  I've have heard you can do nothing and still have hair regrowth.  Alopecia areata effects each of us differently and is so fickle.  I just keep wondering how long my new hair regrowth will last. I want to stay optimistic, calm, and enjoy the moment for now.
