Hair loss and a low sex drive are among the symptoms of long Covid.
Long Covid symptoms include hair loss and low sex drive
New research has discovered that sufferers have experienced over 60 symptoms after contracting coronavirus with distressing effects including alopecia and sexual dysfunction.
The study looked at symptoms reported by more than two million people 12 weeks after they were initially infected with COVID-19.
Dr. Shamil Haroon, of the University of Birmingham, said: "This research validates what patients have been telling clinicians and policymakers throughout the pandemic.
"The symptoms of long Covid are extremely broad and cannot be fully accounted for by other factors such as lifestyle or chronic health conditions.
"The symptoms we identified should help clinicians and clinical guideline developers to improve the assessment of patients with long-term effects from COVID-19, and to subsequently consider how this symptom burden can be best managed."
