While the majority of hair loss in men is caused by male pattern hair loss sometimes the hair loss is due to stress and anxiety. This is a much rarer form of hair loss that often appears sometime after a stressful incident or happening or as a result of ongoing anxiety. Sometimes the hair loss does not appear until 3 or 4 months and it can be complete and leave you completely bald. This type of hair loss can effect both men and women.

In most cases the hair loss that is caused by stress and anxiety will eventually stop and you will start to regrow your hair again. Obviously the stress of losing your hair can create a viscious circle where the stress of losing your hair compounds the problem.
