Mine is finally growing back. Tell your husband to go to a dermatologist who specializes in hair loss.

He went to a dermatologist and they recommended propecia, but once you start you have to be on that for life. Did yours recommend something different?

I had the same experience as Lucy. My dermatologist said that sudden hair loss can follow a major stress to the body (not necessarily covid) and covid certainly can be that. She said this usually occurs 3-5 months after the stressing event.

I also lost my eye lashes and they have not returned.
