In letzter Zeit fragen sich viele Menschen, ob es nach einer Covid-19 Erkrankung zu Haarausfall kommt. Stimmt das? Und falls Covid-19 oder sogar eine Covid-19 Impfung Haarausfall auslösen kann: Was hilft gegen Covid-bedingten Haarausfall?
In general, hair loss affects 1/3 of people in the world and most of us will experience some form of hair loss as we age. It may be inevitable, but there are some things we can do to keep the hair we have or at least slow down the process of hair loss. I’m going to talk about several ways to slow down hair loss naturally.

F: Kann Covid-19 Haarausfall verursachen?
A: Wahrscheinlich ja. Über COVID-19 ist zwar noch vieles unklar, doch Wissenschaftler weisen darauf hin, dass Haarausfall eine mögliche Nebenwirkung sein kann. Beobachtungen und Studien zufolge handelt es sich in der Regel um Telogenes Effluvium, a prolonged hair shedding that occurs in response to a sudden stressor. Telogen effluvium can also be triggered by certain medications, nutrition imbalance, hormonal abnormalities, and stress other than corona virus. Luckily, post COVID-19 hair loss is not permanent they say. “Shedding can occur, however, for three to six months before it stops” Dr. Kuhn, assistant professor of dermatology at Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University said. He also says “The best thing to do is simply wait it out, lower your stress levels down, practice healthy hair habits is paramount.”
F: Was kann ich zu Hause gegen Haarausfall tun?
A: Acht Dinge können auf natürliche Weise gegen Haarausfall helfen.
1. Massage
Eine Kopfhautmassage kann die Kopfhaut anregen und dazu beitragen, dass das Haar kräftiger nachwächst. Es gibt verschiedene Methoden: Sie können zum Beispiel eine Haarmaske (z. B. aus einem koreanischen Beauty-Shop) verwenden oder versuchen, Stress abzubauen, indem Sie mit einem Kamm sanft auf die Kopfhaut klopfen.
2. Coconut oil
Kokosöl enthält Fettsäuren, die in den Haarschaft eindringen und die Proteine im Haar schützen. Sie können es vor oder nach dem Haarewaschen anwenden. Da es ein Öl ist, kann es das Haar schnell beschweren und fettig wirken. Einige Studien deuten zudem darauf hin, dass Kokosöl das Haarwachstum unterstützen kann.
3. Green tea
Green tea is known to be rich in catechins that help reduce dihydrotestosterone(DHT), a hormone that can shrink your hair follicles. In addition to combatting hair loss, green tea can also fight dandruff and prevent scalp dryness. So I recommend you drink lots of green tea and rinse your hair with green tea water.
4. Eggs
Poor diet can also contribute to hair loss so make sure you eat properly. Multi-vitaminis not a magic pill and can’t replace real food with supplements. Eggs are rich in protein packed with essential vitamins. You need protein to grow healthy hair. It’s an affordable way to get your protein and make you have them boiled not fried.
5. Cut the bad habits
Stress can’t always be mitigated, but bad habits can be. Many of the things you do routinely might be contributing to your hair loss. Things like smoking and alcohol both aggravate hair loss. While they might seem to calm stress, they in fact restrict the blood vessels, thus reducing circulation and blood flow to the follicles.
6. Exercise
Exercising on a regular basis is so important since it circulates blood and lowers DHT levels. Jogging on treadmills and lifting adequate amount of weight helps your hairand keeps your body in shape. On the other hand, I do not recommend lifting very heavy weights as it can increase DHT level.
These natural remedies will work to some degree but it won’t have a dramatic effect on your hair especially if you are losing hair due to genetics. Therefore, you can contact Maxwell Hair Clinic in Seoul as they offer various treatments for your hair loss.
