Hey! Kind of off topic but...I had Corona virus and then about 2 months later my hair got sooo thin. I also had some other factors that might have been the cause but my question is: Have you had Covid and then experienced hair loss?

No. Try incorporating more more fish, fish, fish into your eating protocol and eggs and protein. Works better than vitamin pills.3

My husband had covid back in March and he was having hair loss afterwards. He started taking Biotin and using a volume shampoo/conditioner and it had helped.5

yes, I had Covid in July and although I had been losing hair due to the death of my son, I have noticed a lot of bald spots. It is so bad I decided to start wearing wigs. Many of my friends wear them and I had no idea. My "head" wardrobe is now 22 and counting.......Long, short, blonde, brown, black, wavy and straight.......love it.11

People often lose hair a few months after an extremely stressful event.6

Could be Covid, or undereating, or low thyroid or . . .1

Hair loss apparently one of the many varied symptoms of this awful disease.
There was a female celeb who posted videos about it happening to her.2 -
