What is Alopecia areata?

KDAH

Alopecia areata is an autoimmune disorder characterized by sudden hair loss that occurs in small, round patches on the scalp or other areas of the body. This condition occurs when the immune system mistakenly attacks hair follicles, leading to hair loss. There is currently no cure for alopecia areata, but various treatment options are available to help manage the condition and promote hair regrowth. If you suspect you may have alopecia areata or are experiencing sudden hair loss, consult a medical professional for proper diagnosis and treatment. #alopeciaareata #hairloss
