Condition and hair loss :(

So basically I just got a diagnosis a few days ago for a condition that I have and one of the symptoms is hair loss which falls out a lot like I can brush my fingers through my hair and it’ll just fall out into my hands which isn’t like massive batches of it but it’s still kinda a lot.
I know this is probably kinda dramatic but it’s terrifying for me
Sorry

Oh goodness me, I’m so sorry to hear about the news you received from the doctor. Did the doctor give any advice around whether this is more of an increased risk or whether they feel it is highly unlikely to happen? I can only imagine how incredibly difficult it must be to hear something like that at your age. It’s such a heavy and personal thing to process, and it’s completely understandable if you’re feeling a mix of emotions. Were kids something you saw in your future?
If they were, I can understand how your future has been thrown into uncertainty, and that can be scary. This kind of news can reshape how you see your future, and that can be incredibly hard to deal with. But please remember that your worth isn't defined by one aspect of it. You are so much more than this diagnosis. It’s okay to take your time processing this.
