Can Apolecia Areta Hair Loss caused by Allergy
by Agustina
Hello. I am 16 years and for 3 years I have Alopecia areata. The truth is that I do not know what to believe by all treatments. And many doctors made me lose hope. I just want to know whether the allergy has something to do with alopecia hair loss.
Many told me that it was nerves and it might be stress. But I’m only 16 and how can be stress. I have no stress besides having this problem. In fact I suffered a lot in these three years. And the truth is that the only thing I want is to find a solution.
If anyone can answer..
Is allergy has something to do with Alopecia areata? OR does it influence on something?
Many thanks..
Greetings ,

It is possible

Yes it is quite possible. There have been cases where a particular type of Alopecia areata has been treated by removing toxic substances from the body, caused by allergies to foods.
According to Dr. Alvin Stein, toxic heavy metals, pesticides, herbicides, solvents, chemicals, or the food we eat that we are allergic, may be responsible for this disease.
The solution in this case is to identify the allergic reaction caused by the toxic and eliminate through special remedies.

Wish you all the best. Don't give up hope.

Hi,
Sorry to know that you are suffering from Alopecia Areata. AA is not caused by stress but rather by an autoimmune condition where your hair follicles are directly attacked by your own body. So in other words, it could be trigger by an allergy as your body's immune system will respond to it.
There are no cure for AA but in 50% of the cases, it will stop but the hair that you have lost in that particular area will not grow back. There is no medication that can cure it but Minoxidil 5% have been shown to be able to recover some hair.
I suggest the best way to handle it is to live with AA and accept the condition. Join,

Don't lose hope! as new advances like Hair Cloning might be your solution to this problem in the future!

My son has had AA for 7 years his hair grows back every year but then falls out again. He has a full head of hair in the winter and by spring its all gone again this has been going on for 7 long years. I know how you must feel but allergies play a big role on the hair loss. Get tested and see what might be causing this!
Today i went to the beauty salon and while i was getting my hair cut, the professional found out i had hair missing like a circle and he told me i got Alopecia areata. Ive being very stressed for a long time and im pretty scared.
Jessee, your condition remind me of myself back when I was 21. I am much older now! I woke up one day and noticed a coin size smooth circle totally bald in the middle of my head. It was very strange to see a perfect circle without hair and scarry at the same time. I thought to myself... Thats it, you got to wear wig for the rest of your life!! 
OMG now i feel so much better...
I have had a missing patches of hair fall out periodically. So far they've been growing back. I recently found out that I have allergies to cats and dogs. Additionally, my hair loss began at the same time that my fiancé and I began dating and I began spending more time with him at his apartment, where he had a cat. I've been dating him for 6 years now and we are married. 
I noticed my hair was starting to thin out I am 37. I have had bald spots size of a loony in the past but they all grew back said it was stress related. anxiety sleep disorers all my past health problems related to allergy and Candida.
Hey, I also have Alopecia Areta in the back of my head. Doctors have told me its stress and they are treating it with Cortisol injections every 4 weeks. It has been very successful however due to stress more has fallen out. I also have a theory that my AA might be caused by a peanut reaction. 
Hi, My dermatologist told me that the cause of alopecia is unknown, but I have discovered that my alopecia in the hairline and eyebrows are related to my milk allergy (among others). As soon as consume milk products or other products I'm allergic to, circular bald spots appear in my eyebrows, which can be really embarrassing to have. So I stay away from allergens like that to save my hair.
I am severely allergic to PPD in hair dyes. It is a black rubber mix and it caused damage to my follicles - telogen effluvium. My hair has just stopped falling out which started in April 2010. Nightmare. I still experience itching and burning. I can wash my hair with baby shampoo no other products can be used, conditioner, gels, etc...I blow dry my hair on cool. I have had steroid shots as well but don't recommend them as they do cause hair loss. I couldn't figure it out because the hair dye didn't burn or itch while it was on my head and I had used it for years, but I developed a sensitivity to it. PPD is a black rubber mix they use in all hair dyes. It is more damaging and harsh than ammonia or peroxide. It makes me sad I couldn't figure this out before it progressed so. I would have had them foil my hair so it would never touch my scalp. But the sensitive is too much now. 
I have alopecia for 18 years and after quite all medical exams I think It has something to do with Candidas. From beginning I had mild level in GI tract, they survive hard medical treatment / ketoconazol, etc../ And there was precise time correlation between quality of digestion, and hair fallout...Now I have big digestion problems - something Is wrong and - meteorism with cardio compromising / EKG like ischemia, but precise scans show no problem / . So my conclusion is that alopecia is in my case probably due allergic reaction to Candidas which I m trying to identify why they are making problems. Be sure I made all imaginable med test and I red practically all about this illness. There is a theory, that Candida is mimicking imuno privilege tissue like stealth and making imuno-signals disorder...
I had Alopecia 20 years ago... lost all my hair...even my eyelashes! Then started walking every night, it all came back. Now all of a sudden I have 3 huge bald spots again!! Devastated is what I am.
