About Me:
I am 25 years old and have had some type of alopecia since I was 19. At first I was diagnosed with Alopecia Areata in 2002 and after about 1 year of patchy baldness all of my hair grew back. It then fell out again completely in 2004, but totally grew back in the beginning of 2006. I had a full head of hair for a few months before but before I knew it I was Alopecia Universalis again! It finally grew back in the beginning of this year and I really thought my hair was back to stay but is falling out again pretty rapidly now.
Do you have alopecia?
Alopecia areata
Are you age 18 or older?

    Kelli:

    I am sorry but there is nothing specific for adults. I do have a few adults with alopecia that come to our monthly meetings because it helps them being around others and helping the kids. CAP of course helps anyway we can with referring docs and general information. Please feel free to call me at 610-741-5552, I live in Wyomissing and would love to meet you and have you involved. I could also arrange a meeting with adults in this area and maybe we can start AAP (Adult Alopecia Project)? Who knows. My wife is Betsy and she too has Alopecia and her cell is 610-468-1011.

    Take care,
    Jeff - www.childrensalopeciaproject.org
