It's called 'pulse therapy' which includes several high doses of steroids, for a short period of time; pulsed out over time. The reseach has suggested that many people with this disorder are cured within a 3-6month time frame. Although they say it causes no side-effects or risk, I would do my own personal due diligence. Seems to be available in most other countries except here in the USA" http://www.earthclinic.com/Redirect.php?pageLink=/CURES/alopecia.html&name=LK_14855 /CURES/alopecia.rss2 Sat, 12 Jul 2008 00:00:00 EDT [YEA] Carol from Chicago, IL writes: "I purchased the clear iodine, known as liquid kelp from Whole Foods. I applied a drop or two a day on my scalp every other day for about 2 months. many strands of hair did grow on my scalp but the hair is in the form of white fuzz. The article you about wrote about clear iodine causing fuzz to grow on scalp, worked as you said it would. A bald spot on my scalp still remains along with many stunted growth of white fuzzy hair." http://www.earthclinic.com/Redirect.php?pageLink=/CURES/alopecia.html&name=WARNING_4496 /CURES/alopecia.rss3 Fri, 04 Jan 2008 00:00:00 EST [WARNING!] Mary from Newark, New Jersey writes: "Dear Earth Clinic, I just wanted to let you know that I think on Ted\'s Posts it should say in bold at the beginning, or where it can\'t be missed to read the recipes carefully. I had a small bald spot on my head, found this website, and read some things Ted wrote. I read something about hydrogen peroxide and acv for scalp problems and hair loss. It did not say how much to use in the blurb I read. I thought I would try it. Well I just made a solution up and put it on my head. Left it on overnight. Well, Now I am loosing all my hair!!! So this was not a remedy in the little problem I had, instead, it is causing all my hair to fall out. I would like to spare future readers from this, so please put a warning, and make sure people read Ted\'s postings very carefully, and if they do not see a recipe, have them contact Ted before just making one up themselves. I know most people would be more careful, but there are us haphazard people out here you know. Thank you." http://www.earthclinic.com/Redirect.php?pageLink=/CURES/alopecia.html&name=IODINE_4500 /CURES/alopecia.rss4 Tue, 01 Jan 2008 00:00:00 EST [YEA] Rob from Hawthorn Woods, IL writes: "Since I posted my comments several months ago regarding the use of Iodine for my wife\'s allopecia, I\'ve had several inquiries about the particulars of my wife\'s treatment. I believe the majority of allopecia problems are internal, not external, so I would highly recommend an Iodine deficiency test if you indeed suffer from this. Many doctors are familiar with this test, but if you go to Dr. Mercola\'s website at Mercola.com and type \"iodine deficiency\" in the search box, he will give directions on how to easily and inexpensively do the test yourself. Please post your feedback here at Earth Clinic so that we can help everyone....Thanks" http://www.earthclinic.com/Redirect.php?pageLink=/CURES/alopecia.html&name=ANTIBIOTICSBEST_4497 /CURES/alopecia.rss5 Mon, 01 Oct 2007 00:00:00 EDT [YEA] T from Ottawa, Canada writes: "re: Alopecia -- Hello, On and off seemingly during high stress times (exam time when I was in university, during heavy work load times at my job) my scalp becomes irritated, red and inflamed. Bald patches start forming and the scalp is very soft in those areas. I have tried many different types of herbal solutions. I have tried apple cider vinegar, tea tree oil with lavender oil, hydrogen peroxide, taking a spoon of baking soda twice a day etc. All seemed to help slightly. The tea tree oil was probably the most effective. However, because I\'ve suffered from this many times in the past I feel I should let people know that the only thing that really 100% worked for me was not herbal. It required a trip to my doctor and a prescription for minocin (an antibiotic). It\'s very cheap and worth it. Within a week the irritation, redness, inflammation disappeared. Within a month the bald patches had also filled in. I would recommend anyone with this problem visit their doctor and ask about an antibiotic. It will save you a lot of pain and stress. Good luck." http://www.earthclinic.com/Redirect.php?pageLink=/CURES/alopecia.html&name=IODINE_4498 /CURES/alopecia.rss6 Thu, 16 Aug 2007 00:00:00 EDT [YEA] Rob from Hawthorn Woods, IL writes: "My wife unexpectedly had all the hairs in her eyebrows fall out over a period of several weeks. There was no apparent cause but we suspected stress had something to do with it. They did eventually grow back, but were very thin and the follicles were still weak. It wasn\'t until almost a year later that a wonderful holistic doctor tested her and found her iodine deficient. She was put on an iodine pill, her energy levels came way up, the her eyebrows are as thick as ever. Kelp tablets would probably do the trick too, as they are high in iodine." http://www.earthclinic.com/Redirect.php?pageLink=/CURES/alopecia.html&name=FS_4501 /CURES/alopecia.rss7 Fri, 11 May 2007 00:00:00 EDT [YEA] Alicia from Las Vegas, NV writes: "After trying countless products on my poor daughter, my friend recommended the Rene Furterer Astera Soothing Milk Shampoo. In one week she started sprouting little hairs. In two months her hair is now thicker and her bald spot is almost completely covered. It didn't stop the reinfections in other spots of her head though. For now we are using the shampoo. I got it from Hello-Gorgeous.net." http://www.earthclinic.com/Redirect.php?pageLink=/CURES/alopecia.html&name=CHINESEREDDATES_4502 /CURES/alopecia.rss8 Fri, 26 Jan 2007 00:00:00 EST [YEA] Trisha from Singapore writes: "I started taking red date and honey as I read it is good for blood circulation, I added 3 -5 drops of apple cider vinegar to it ( balance of the yin and yang in the body and for calming too.. according to traditional chinese medicine) lo and behold, after 3 months of it.. I noticed that a balding part of my scalp rejuvenated and hair started to grow !! after 6 months I started to let my hair grow without cutting it, I now sport hair beyond shoulder length, something which I couldn\'t do since my hair was very fine and scanty !! ( I also take apple cider vinegar half a teaspoon daily with honey) My sister and brother also tried it, we noticed that facial skin became more youthful !! due to the blood circulation?" http://www.earthclinic.com/Redirect.php?pageLink=/CURES/alopecia.html&name=IODINE_4504 /CURES/alopecia.rss9 Tue, 12 Sep 2006 00:00:00 EDT [YEA] Barb from Auckland, New Zealand writes: "Alopecia Areata is bald spots that occur all of a sudden on your scalp. I dab it on once a day on bald spots for a week to a fortnight - and then forget about it (if I can) and hope:) So far it seems to start the growth of hair again. It changes the scalp texture from red and irritable back to normal scalp. Within 6 weeks to 8 weeks usually spot is covering with little hairs. The iodine may even help the fatigue that comes when your hair falls out too - when a bald spot is occurring I tend to get deathly pale and feel exhausted." http://www.earthclinic.com/Redirect.php?pageLink=/CURES/alopecia.html&name=TEATREEOIL_4507 /CURES/alopecia.rss10 Mon, 31 Jul 2006 00:00:00 EDT [YEA] N from writes: "For alopecia, tea tree oil and lavender oil should be used. However, they should only be used once a week. I used it daily and it burned my scalp."
