Welcome to r/alopecia_areata, a safe and supportive space for anyone affected by alopecia areata and autoimmune-related hair loss.
Alopecia areata is an autoimmune condition in which the immune system mistakenly attacks hair follicles, leading to hair loss.
It is often identified by:
• Small, round patches of sudden hair loss (usually on the scalp or beard)
In some cases, complete loss of scalp hair (alopecia totalis) or all body hair (alopecia universalis)
