Sudden Hair Loss and COVID-19

A 51-year-old woman with hypothyroidism was admitted to the hospital due to postoperative complications. She tested positive for COVID-19 but showed no signs of respiratory failure. However, on the third day of hospitalization, she experienced severe hair loss overnight, along with an intense headache. This case suggests that sudden hair loss could be a symptom or complication of COVID-19, highlighting the need for further investigation and management of this potential symptom.
