Hair loss after covid

Thanks for the advice... much appreciated!

Hair loss is a common feature after any severe illness - imagine the body diverting resources to the absolutely necessary.
It makes sense to have a good diet generally and some standard multi-vitamins. In principle your hair will return as you get better.
Having said that, a few people find it never quite gets back to what it was, I hope yours does.

Hello Babs as I mentioned earlier, if you are deficient in vitamin D you definitely need the loading dose first in order to it to get into your system, and you need to have a prescription for it.
I remember comparing mine with the vitamin D that DH has to take and it was about 500 times stronger - something ridiculous like that.
It's definitely worth asking your GP for a blood test and getting the high dose.
Over the years I have tried ever pill, potion and treatment going. I have spent literally thousands of pounds. Nothing worked. Summer 2019 I was on the verge of having extensions. I was losing so much hair, it was all over the floor and every surface. The vacuum was full of it.
It's sooo much better now

May I ask what the dosage of vitamin D is that you take for this. ?

Thank you FannyC and Granny. I will look into getting some high dose vit D.
Off to get our first covid jab today so hopefully one step to seeing the back of this plague.

I agree withFanny vitamin D definitely helps. I've been taking it for about 5 months now and my hair has grown really long and the condition is much better.

I don't think that 'normal' vitamins will cut it, btw, I definitely needed the loading dose - which was several hundreds of times more potent.

I suffered from hairloss for years.
January 2020 I was diagnosed with very low vitamin D. I was prescribed a high loading dose and now take normal vitamin D tablets. My hair is thicker than its been in over 15 years and longer than its ever been.
Ask your GP to do your bloods.
Best wishes to you and your husband.
