Gluten related to alopeica?

So I just read somewhere that gluten allergies are linked to alopecia in some cases. Has anyone one else had any experience with this where your hair actually grew back once you went gluten free? I have some other stomach problems where that may indicate a gluten allergy so I was considering going gluten free for a while. But if my hair grows back that would definitely be a plus.
