Stress can affect your life in several different ways. Promoting hair loss is one of them, and it can lead to three different hair loss conditions: trichotillomania (literally pulling hair out of the scalp), telogen effluvium (a scalp disorder in which the hairs begin to shed at an abnormal rate), or alopecia areata (an autoimmune skin disease that results in scalp hair loss).
If stress is interfering with your life, you should seek professional help so you can access its root cause and gradually work to overcome it.
