About Me:
My name is Anna-Lisa. I was diagnosed with AU October 2011. I had my daughter in March so when I started losing my hair, I didn't think anything of it. It wasn't until I found bald spots and noticed my arm and leg hair was missing that I figured I should get it checked out. I knew what Alopecia was, so I knew what the diagnosis was going to be.
I was blessed to have a period of regrowth after my diagnosis. That lasted about six months before I found a spot on the back of my head. That spot turned into more and more.
I'm still in the process of it falling out but I have lost about 80-90% and I recently shaved my head. I actually feel really comfortable with my shaved head because I'm not trying to hide my spots anymore.
Do you have alopecia?
Alopecia universalis
Are you age 18 or older?

    Ha Ha. I wasn't sure because I saw the WA state. Glad you found the site. It is really a wonderful network. :)

    Hi there. I also live in Washington, but on the other side of the mountains. I'm glad you found the site. I hope you get a lot of information from it, as well as hear from everybody. I have had AU for the past 8 years, and AA since I was 7. My hair came back in my teens, and fell out again permanently when I had my son 8 years ago. I definitely think hormones have a lot to do with it, and it sounds like this may be the case with you and your hair loss. Feel free to contact me directly if you want to chat, or if you are on this side of the hills.
