About Me:
My nine-year-old daughter has alopecia. Last year, she had two spots that grew back. In October, she got two spots again. This week we noticed new spots. She has small spots that are just starting to be at all noticeable. She has handled it all very well. She also has hypothyroidism. Based on the last evaluation from the endocrynologist, she is doing really well and her mom is a little over anxious. : )
Do you have alopecia?
Parent or guardian of child with alopecia

    Hi Diane - My daughter, Julia, is 7 and also has some thyroid issues along with her AA that is rapidly becoming AT . Right now her antibodies are very high - she is currently on thyroid medication. As with your daughter, Julia is handling this better than me. We will keep you and your daughter in our prayers.

    Hi, My name is Tracy and my daughter Amanda is almost 7. She has had alopecia since she was 4. She has had bald spots come and go in the past 3 yrs. I hope my daughter can write to your daughter. I am just glad that this website is available for anyone dealing with alopecia to know that they are not alone.
