I know how frightening and scary any type of hair loss be for any woman of any age, but I do think it is harder when you are younger. I can speak from personal experience that, yes it can just stop at one patch and regrow in. My cousin's 5 year old daughter has alopecia areata and she will get one patch from time to time and so far it has always grow back in. There are several women in our network http://community.womenshairlossproject.com that also have alopecia areata and who I am sure would be able to provide more in depth knowledge about your daughter's condition. All the women here are so incredibly supportive so I definitely encourage her to sign up. Being a part of the network provides a more personal one on one way to communicate with different women. Please feel free to post any time with any questions you have, if I don't have the answer I'm sure someone else will. All The Best, ~Y Dear Scott,

Presently, she has one bald spot on the crown of her head about the size of a silver dollar....it came out of nowhere, as she otherwise has a full head of healthy, thick hair. As many have surely felt, she is panicked about what may happen next. I have two questions we would deeply appreciate responses to. (1) Does anyone know of any instances where the hair loss stopped with just one patch? (2) How can we/she become part of your forum, so that she may communicate with others who are afflicted with this condition? Thank you for being a resource to turn to.

I have suffered from hairloss for a good 9, 10 years now, and was just searching Google for an online support group, and came across this site. I've also been thinking of an in-person group, but thought online would be a good place to start, since it's sometimes easier to talk about this anonomously, at least in the beginning. Then later, maybe I'd get the courage to meet others in person, who also suffer from this problem. Please let me know when the instant messenger talk will be available, and I'll definitely try and be there. Will that be specifically for a hairloss discussion, or would I have to search for a specific forum separate from the IM to discuss.
