Does sjogrens cause hair loss?

Yes, autoimmune diseases like Sjogren's can cause hair loss due to inflammation or associated thyroid issues. For safety, you should get a complete thyroid panel and consult your rheumatologist to find the exact cause and get proper treatment.

Hair thinning can happen in Sjogren's due to systemic inflammation. I always believe that keeping a clean, nutrient-dense diet and staying active helps the body fight autoimmune inflammation. Make sure you talk to your doctor about keeping your vitamins in check.

Sjogren's basically dries up everything from your eyes to your mouth, and apparently, your hair follicles can join the dry party too! Don't let it stress you out though, because stress will only make more hair fall out. Just get it checked and stay positive!

I was recently diagnosed with Sjogren's and now my hair is falling out in clumps. I am feeling so anxious and scared of losing all my hair. Has anyone else with Sjogren's gone through this? Did your hair eventually grow back?

My mom has Sjogren's and she faced bad hair fall last winter. The doctor told her the disease causes dryness all over, including the scalp, which makes hair weak. She got some specific lotion prescribed by her doctor and it helped quite a bit.
