Hello I'm Allie, I am 15 and I have had Alopecia Areata since June (2013). So far I have 3 bald spots, one big and 2 small. I can still hide it I just cant put my hair up. I recently started a Facebook page called "alopecia teens united" so please go and like it! I am a strong Christian growing in my faith every day. <3 I eat 100% plant based meaning I don't eat anything that comes from animals and little to no processed foods and because of that I am having regrowth. If you have any questions please feel free to ask me. I am looking forward to getting to know all of you! Have a Blessed day!
Hey, its good your not letting this disease get you down!!
So I'm interested in your diet. So you just eat vegetables, fruits, and nuts? Do you eat vegetables raw or just however? Anything more specific will be greatly appreciated!
My daughter is 14 and I also have boys who are 13, 17 and 18. We are going in tomorrow for our second round of injections. She has only had 1 round so far and that was 2 weeks ago. Since then there has be a lot more hair loss. She does not have bald patches - its more live an overall thinning on the crown of her head and at the temples.
How long have you been eating a plant based diet and are you doing any other treatments?
