I got a bald spot from stress

Doc says it's most likely stress related alopecia. I have never experienced this before, just a small spot in the right side of my head that stopped growing hair.

Trying to take it easy but life sucks right now tbh. No idea what job is next, whether I'll startup again or not, if I'll be able to go for master's or not etc etc. Family also seeing sickness and death since covid began.

Adulting sucks.

Same pinch bro. I hot it is side effect of covid vaccine. Let me know if you have more details about this and any cure Dr suggested

Alopecia is very common, i guess it comes for most men sooner or later.

My doc prescribed me an ointment, shampoo and two tablets. I'm just waiting for it to improve on its own tbh. Don't want to mess with it so much.

Just focusing on diet and exercise for now.

Might try the meds if it doesn't improve in a month or two.

Stress + vaccine probably.

I had multiple patches - steroid shots + needling + minoxidil helped.

Finding it strange people are quoting vaccine as reason for hair loss 🤔

Could also be covid after effects, no?

Well immune system acting up. Could be Covid, could be the vaccine. Tend to feel it is the latter.

Just remember Jeff bezos the one of the most richest person, yet he is bald. So there is no cure. You can just slow it down. It's inevitable.

There's a difference between being bald and having Alopecia. It's hair loss in specific spots
