Is Hair Loss The Symptom Of Multiple Sclerosis?

Within the last three months my hair has been rapidly falling out. My dermatologist says it s not alopecea. I m under a lot of stress right now as my mother-in-law died in November. However, I ve also been checked for MS twice in the past and have symptoms of MS now. Is hair loss one of them? I m not taking any new medicines.

It is not due to MS. This hair fall due to stress is Alopecia.

Do Yoga, eat plenty of fresh fruits and green leafy vegetables. Drink plenty of water. Avoid smoking and drinking alcohol.
