Alopecia and gluten?

I've been doing a ton of reading on gluten and from what I hear, gluten can cause Celiac disease which can ultimately lead to alopecia. I'm trying to do as much research on this as possible and would like as much help in doing so. I'm also thinking about trying a gluten free diet for a few months just to see if I get any regrowth. Who knows, it' worth a shot right?

Do you have any symptoms of Celiac's or have you been diagnosed. I have read other possible connections with diet but it seems different things work for different people.It is very confusing.
