Takotsubo Syndrome and Hair Loss

(female) I started losing my hair a year ago just before being hospitalized and diagnosed with Takosubo Syndrome. I took nutritional supplements and used Nioxin on my hair. The bald spot filled in but my hair is much thinner now and now starting to bald behind my ears. Why is this happening and what can I do about it? Would appreciate your input.

Thanks

Stress (both emotional and physical) can cause hair loss. There is not much you can do about it other than addressing your stress. I know that the diagnosis sounds bleak and not promising, so your level of stress must be high. Read below for information on this terrible disease:
