The 11 pages that link to Alopecia areata, each with the reason it gives.

• Hair follicleRelated: Immune attack disrupts the growth of follicles, often producing sharply defined bald patches.

• Androgenetic alopeciaCompared with: Its immune-mediated patches differ from androgen-associated patterned thinning.

• Hair growth cycleRelated: Follicle cycling can be disrupted during episodes of this immune-mediated hair loss.

• Telogen effluviumCompared with: Patchy loss and autoimmune follicle targeting distinguish it from diffuse cycling-related shedding.

• Traction alopeciaCompared with: Its smooth patches arise from immune activity rather than repeated mechanical pulling.

• TrichotillomaniaCompared with: It can produce similar patches of hair loss without pulling behavior.

• Scarring alopeciaCompared with: Hair may regrow because follicles are not permanently destroyed.

• Hair growthRelated: It interrupts normal follicle production through an immune-mediated process.

• Hair lossBroader topic: It illustrates how immune attack can interrupt hair production without permanently destroying follicles.

• TrichologyBroader topic: It contrasts immune-mediated patch loss with hormonally patterned thinning.

• Pattern hair lossCompared with: Patchy loss contrasts with the gradual, region-specific thinning of pattern hair loss.
