Abstract

<p>Two cases of hair loss due to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) sequelae as known as Long COVID were successfully treated with ninjin’yoeito. Case 1 was a 45-year-old woman who complained of hair loss about 2 months after COVID-19 (moderate II in Japanese criteria). Case 2 was a 50-year-old woman who complained of hair loss about 2 months after COVID-19 (mild). In all cases, hair loss stopped next month after treatment with ninjin’yoeito. And their hair began to grow 2 months later administration, the depression caused by hair loss improved as the symptoms improved. Hair loss is one of the symptoms with blood [TM1] deficiency, and patients suffering from Long COVID are also with qi deficiency. We gave ninjinʼyoeito for pattern of both qi and blood [TM1] deficiency with reference to traditional key of treatment, and it contributed to the improvement of symptoms.</p>
