A member asked:
Im female teen, been through emotionally stressful event recently and depression, wondering if my hair will fall out due to this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Usually not: Your hair will not fall out due to a stressful event unless you pull it out. That said, Alopeica Areata , an autoimmune mediated local baldness, can be exacerbated by stress.
