Khloé Kardashian Opened Up About The "Struggle" Of Losing Her Hair When She Had COVID-19
In a Twitter Space chat on Tuesday, Khloé Kardashian revealed she struggled with major hair loss amid her positive coronavirus diagnosis.
"My hair really fell out with COVID,” she said, per US Magazine. "So after, it was really a struggle for a minute."
She also added that her sense of taste and smell was "the only thing that I didn't lose. But I had everything else — like anything else you can imagine."
The 37-year-old had COVID-19 back in March 2020 and detailed her symptoms in the penultimate season of Keeping Up with the Kardashians.
"It was really bad for a couple of days — vomiting and shaking and hot and then cold," she shared at the time. "I suffer from migraines, but this was the craziest headache. My chest would burn when I cough."
"Let me tell you, that shit is real," she added in a hoarse voice. "But we’re all gonna get through this."
According to multiple reports, hair loss suffered during a COVID infection is entirely normal due to both physical and emotional stress. The number of people searching about hair loss on Google has skyrocketed, and a January study noted that 22% of hospitalized COVID-19 patients in China reported hair loss six months later.
