What kind do i have
Can anyone offer advice on what kind of alopecia i may have.. last year when i first lost it, it wasnt that much off my head, a little on arms, and legs, but thats it... this year its all of my body hair, and i have about 10% of my head hair left... if its the 6 month cycle, then it should start growing back any day now.. but if i have universalis, does that mean its unpredictable if and when it will grow back? if i still have some hair on my head, does that mean i have areata not universalis? i dont understand the differences of any of them...

I had AU once for about 6 months. Now I have white hair sparsely along my hairline on my head. The rest of the body hair grew back. I now trim or shave my head hair and wear wigs or nothing.

I still call myself AU even though after many years I've regrowth on the top of my head, a little underhair arm hair and some pubic hair. Still no nose hair to speak of, or leg/arm hair. who can say if yours will or won't regrow...alopecia is extremely unpredictable.

So.. if i have no body hair does that mean i have AU? i dont get the different between them all, the only hair on my body is like 10% of my head hair hasnt fallen out yet, and i still have some eyelashes on the top but its thinner ...
