I don't write here very often. But I read form time to time. I was born in the uS but I live in Italy now. The thing that is bugging me lately is that here people seem less "open" about Alopecia. It is considered something to be ashamed of, someting to hide. I know lots of women who don't even show their head to their husbands or parent's. How could this be?

Is it mentality? Not enough information? Who knows...
