About Me
About Me:
hi im karla a 23 female . living in united kingdom .. im not sure what type of hairloss i have as the dr's dont seem to know there self . it started when i was 16 . and now its still happening .. at first they said its because i was in shock . then it was because im stressed out . then because i became pregnant ... but this has been going on for a long time 7 years now and its so hard for me more now than before ..
Hi Karla, this is a great place to get support and information. I have patchy bald spots (alopecia areata) pretty much all over my head, but I noticed it is generally thinning all over. It is crazy that when I started losing my hair I had all the questions and the doctors didn't have any answers. I felt like I knew more about different types of hair loss and treatments than they did.
Hi Karla, Welcome to this site. You wrote that you have patches. Do you mean you have bald patches on your head? If so, this what I have and it is alopecia areata. For me the hair usually grows back eventually but then others fall out in other spots. It is very frustrating but there isn't anything I can do. I know how you feel. It has taken a few years but I have come to accept this and I no longer hide what is happening. I do not want it to take over my life. I have a husband and 2 children to take care so I refuse to let this get the best of me. I hope you find comfort from this site. It is such a great place. Lisa
Hi Karla, Welcome to the network. There are lots of wonderful ladies here who can offer advice and support. You are so young for this to be happening to, but I have learned that hair loss has no age limit!
