A growing number of patients who were previously infected with the novel coronavirus have reported that they have been seeing excessive hair loss in the weeks and even months following their recoveries.
According to Business Insider, the symptom appears to be pervasive among recovered victims — yet so little known to health professionals that many patients have resorted to online forums to find answers and support.
For example, Peggy Goroly, a 56-year-old Long Island resident who was infected with the virus in March, claimed that she first sought help on a COVID-19 Facebook group after she noticed an abnormal amount of shedding, which she deemed “quite traumatic.”
Goroly’s 23-year-old daughter was also facing a similar problem, and the two were soon to discover that she and her daughter were far from alone.
