Can you lose hair all over your body from stress??

if so, will it come back?

Deffinitly...but you would have to be really stressed. Stress causes the body to produce acidic. The body should be more alkaline than acidic to be considered healthy. When the body is more acidic its chances are much higher for getting sick, or even losing hair...which is a sign that the body is being depleted of an important nutrient, also seen in people with eating disorders. Its also thought that it can even produce cancer! (a few acidic producing things: drugs/medication like asprin,ciggerettes, alcohol, coffee, greasy fatty foods like most fast food, stress, fear)

You should deffinitly take a multivitamin if this is happening to you.

Malnutrition and stress are very common causes. Hair is made of keratin protein and you also need certain vitamins and minerals.

Stress kills some of the minerals, as well as malnutrition.

The best tip is to go to the doctor first to find out the real causes. The earlier a treatment starts the bigger the chances to maintain the remaining hair. Once the hair is lost, it is difficult to gain it back.

Yes, one of the symptoms of stress is hair loss. I'm not sure why, I don't have the physiological explanation, but once your body is not feeling so stressed out, it will grow back.

I have a feeling that you can lose hair from stress and that it will grow back... this is just what I think though.. so you cannot count on me.

I mean people who have eating disorders lose their hair and it grows back... so I feel like it will for you too.
