"This disorder is known as Alopecia Areata. The condition doesn't only occur in women. It happens to both men and women of all ages. You're not alone! Alopecia Areata has been reported to be found in four million people around the world.

Typically, Alopecia Areata is onset in childhood. Out of every five people affected by the disorder, one of them has a family history of Alopecia Areata. This information strongly suggests that this form of baldness can be inherited. Unfortunately there is no known measure for prevention.

Not sure you have Alopecia Areata? You should consult your physician for prognosis and treatment. Check to see if you have any or all of the following symptoms:

*Patchy areas of hair are missing
*Circular bald patches (approximately the size of a quarter) appear
*In extreme cases, eyelashes, eyebrows, nasal hair, and body hair will completely shed.


The importance of consulting a physician can not be stressed enough. While the disorder is not a life-threatening illness, Alopecia Areata can be very challenging on an emotional level. Especially for women and children. It isn't something that a person can 'learn to live with.' "
