Lost 90% of my hair had the 5 year iud,removed it on the 4th year,lived in a apartment with black for over 2 years. Now my dermatologist saids I have alopecia aerate! He did not due a biopsy.The hair loss is in round perfect circles& other symptoms.He said there is no need.You have all the symptoms. Should I insist on the biopsy? Please help! When you do not have good insurance. Doct. Just give you more meds. I am 36 years old. I have over 6 doctors. They all say a different things. Thank you all for your support and some1 that knows the frustration.

Hi Trish! Your story has me scared for you! It is so odd they couldn't find the strings to the iud. And the symptoms you are experiencing makes me wonder if it hasn't some how moved causing you all the pain. I hope you have it removed soon and that you start to feel better. Please keep us posted on how you are doing. Best wishes to you.
