Is it because of my stress? Can stress be the reason for my hair loss?

Hi, I lost my job six months back, since then I am a bit stressed about my future. I am having issues like hair loss and acne for the past two months. I never had acne in my teenage or early 20s. Not only that, but I think soon I’ll get bald. I need some suggestions. Are stress and hair fall related?

@ashvik Hey, I am very disheartened to hear that, I hope it gets better. Controlling your stress might help you with hair loss, as stress and hair loss are connected. There are three types of hair loss related to stress.
- Telogen effluvium
- Trichotillomania
- Alopecia areata
If you notice sudden or more than usual hair loss when combing or washing your hair, talk to your doctor. Sudden hair loss can signal an underlying medical condition that requires treatment. If needed, your doctor might also suggest treatment options for your hair loss.
