Hello @iwillbeatthis! How are you feeling today?
Thank you for starting this discussion! I think this is a very interesting subject we can discuss together. Hair loss can be a side effect of lupus, however, it is essential to talk to your medical professional. Have you brought up this issue to your doctor? I will tag some members who might want to share their thoughts on this topic.

Take care,

Not a problem my wife has suffered from in her life dealing with her Lupus. She does have a little age related hair lose but nothing you would notice unless you were looking for it.

Hi everyone,
During my flares I have lots of hair loss. It's gotten really bad, its patchy and even when I recover, it doesn't grow back fully. My hair is so thin, and I don't think it will ever go back the way it was. I was considering getting a wig. Does anyone else have this problem ? Do you have another solution? xx
