Yes, multiple individuals have reported experiencing hair loss. Some attribute it to conditions like lupus, PCOS, or Hashimoto's disease, while others believe it may be due to acute stress or a particularly bad mental illness episode. Some also mentioned that they experienced hair loss due to iron deficiency or as a symptom of fibromyalgia.

Hi! I have experienced hair loss during UC flares and other illnesses. Would definitely recommend checking in with a dermatologist to make sure it’s related to your UC and not a dermatological condition. If you’ve been having a flare with your UC, then the combination of stress on your body, inflammation, and poor nutrition is likely causing your hair loss.
