It is said that hair loss may occur during the recovery process or as an aftereffect of the new coronavirus infection.
This time, I would like to talk about the hair loss I experienced as a result of infection.

Symptoms of hair loss after coronavirus

It seems like there are more women than men who are worried about hair loss as a result of the coronavirus.
Most cases of AGA develop from the hairline, with hair loss concentrated on the top of the head, whereas hair loss caused by the after-effects of the coronavirus seems to be characterized by hair loss all over the body.

■Acute telogen effluvium

 Hair loss caused by the aftereffects of coronavirusacute telogen effluviumThis is a temporary symptom called.
This phenomenon is not limited to coronavirus, but is a phenomenon in which hair suddenly falls out when experiencing an infection, major surgery, childbirth, etc.
When your body senses a crisis, it temporarily suspends its hair cycle, and two to three months later, the resting phase hair falls out all at once.
It can also occur when you feel psychological stress.

■ Corona hair loss period
As the coronavirus symptoms recover, they will gradually grow back, so don't worry and wait and see.
The duration of hair loss and the severity of the symptoms vary from person to person, so if you have any concerns or concerns, please consult a specialist doctor rather than making decisions on your own.
AGA symptoms may become stronger due to corona alopecia, so if your symptoms do not improve, you should be careful as you may be developing thinning hair for reasons other than corona.

Experiencing hair loss due to coronavirus

■Corona hair loss experience
On May 2023, 5, the classification of the new coronavirus was lowered to a "Class 8 infectious disease," the same as seasonal influenza.
Just when you think the number of infected people has calmed down, a new mutant strain is discovered and the number increases again, repeating the cycle, and I hear that many people are suffering from the aftereffects.
I have also been infected with the coronavirus several times, but I feel that the aftereffects of hair loss are more scary than the coronavirus itself.

The first infection occurred during the Delta strain epidemic.I had a lot of hair, and the more I combed it, the more my hair fell out.The hairdresser who always cuts my hair was amazing.
When I was infected for the second time, I experienced hair loss again as an aftereffect, and I learned that there are many people who feel the same way.

■Decided to open a hair specialty clinic
While I don't know if my aftereffects will ever heal, I try to stop trying to look cool and accept myself as I am.
The shock of losing my hair was so great that I decided to undergo treatment.
During the treatment process, I was impressed by the evolution and high demand for hair loss treatment.
Based on my own experience, I decided to start a clinic because I wanted to create a place where people with similar concerns could feel free to seek advice.

Nowadays, when it seems like the coronavirus is coming to an end, it's no longer talked about on TV, so it's been forgotten.Many people are still visiting our clinic suffering from hair loss due to coronavirus.
Some people who had no choice but to suffer from loneliness have mustered up the courage to come to our clinic, and we want to provide them with strength, so we would like to continue to provide information through videos and blogs. Masu.

Talking about hair loss and thinning hair is a very sensitive issue, so you don't often talk about it with people around you, and even if people around you notice it, they can't bring it up easily, so you don't have the opportunity to have them pointed out honestly.
I would be happy if our clinic could be a place where everyone who is worried about thinning hair or hair loss can alleviate their concerns.

The relationship between corona hair loss and AGA

As I mentioned earlier, acute telogen effluvium causes hair loss that should be a temporary symptom.
In some cases, it develops into AGA or female hair thinning FAGA.
Although the relationship between coronavirus hair loss and AGA and the causal relationship with the onset of AGA are not yet known,
When we examine people who have experienced hair loss due to the coronavirus, there is a lot of data showing that it was AGA.
It is thought that the symptoms of AGA, which were originally slight, may have become more apparent due to coronavirus infection, and the onset of AGA may have been accelerated.

For those who are worried about hair loss after coronavirus

As a result of the coronavirus infection, I gained a lot of knowledge about the coronavirus, AGA, and medicine, and I thought about the future of hair loss treatment.
Leaving rapid hair loss untreated can be quite mentally taxing.
Because I have personally experienced hair loss and AGA due to the coronavirus, I believe that I am the best person to help patients who are currently suffering.

What I would like those who are suffering from hair loss due to coronavirus or AGA to know is that it can be cured with treatment and that hair thinning treatment is safe.
Treatment methods vary depending on the cause and symptoms of hair loss/thinning, so we believe that by consulting a specialized clinic rather than making decisions on your own, you can get your hair back to its pre-progress state.
I would be happy if you could consult the clinic without having to worry about it alone.

Summary

Hair loss caused by the coronavirus will gradually grow back as the symptoms of the coronavirus recover, so don't panic and keep an eye on it.
The duration of hair loss and the severity of the symptoms vary from person to person, so if you have any concerns or concerns, we recommend that you consult a specialist doctor rather than making decisions on your own.
If your symptoms do not improve, your hair may be thinning due to reasons other than coronavirus.
There are various treatments and medications available now, so we recommend early treatment rather than leaving it alone just because it is mild, before it becomes serious and difficult to treat.
