Researchers have now discovered that the effects of the virus can cause hair loss.
Three to four months after contracting the virus, many people experience hair loss.
Jerry Shapiro is a dermatologist at NYU (New York University, journal. Note). He tells the New York Times that a healthy person’s scalp and hair contain 90 percent of what is called anagen or active hair and 10 percent telogen or resting hair. After an infection with a high fever, this ratio can change to 50-50.
That is, hair in the telogen and resting phase is more likely to fall off the scalp.

According to a technology company called Spate, the number of Google searches for hair loss in the United States has increased 8 percent in the last 12 months. This corresponds to an average of 829,000 searches per month and is a good indication that there is an increase in people who have questions about hair loss.
You don’t have to have had the virus to experience hair loss.
Another dermatologist at New York Medical College has investigated the same problem.
“Any kind of stress can trigger it, whether it be stress on the body from illness or emotional stress like the death of a loved one,” Abigail Cline tells the New York Times.

This is called telogen effluvium, which is temporary hair loss due to more of the hair entering the hair loss phase, also called the telogen phase. It is more normal for women to experience this, often in connection with pregnancy.
It will happen
Hairstylist for various celebrities and models, Justine Marjan, reassures that if you experience so-called telogen effluvium, your hair will grow back, but it will take time. His advice is also to try not to stress so much and to be careful what you expose your hair to.
