i jst discovered 2 lil' bald patches and I have PCOS.
I was just recently dx with alopecia areata and i was wondering... what symptoms did u have to lead u to find u had pcos? was it thru a routine exam or did u have any other symptoms? i am nervous my alopecia areata could be from pcos. any info would be helpful!
My hairline was receeding a bit but no patches! I was freaking out... I used different types of shampoo and tablets to help!
Alopecia is another autoimmune disease in itself. For some reason the immune system attacks the hair follicles and destroys them which is what leads to the hair loss. My best friend has it and she has no hair anywhere! Not really sure if it is thyroid realated but I don't think so. With the thyroid you do lose hair but not leading to baldness.
