Does Prurigo Nodoralis Cause Hair Loss?

I had generalized hairloss evenly over the scalp 2 months after covid in june 2020. Took 2 capsules called Priorin (in Sweden at least, but could probably be bought online) twice a day for 3 months and the hair grow thicker again. 2 months ago the same hairloss started approximately 2-3 mo after a real bad PN flare on my buttocks. So now I´m taking Priorin-capsules again and hope it will be as effective as last time. You can also buy Priorin schampo and conditioner, but I think the capsules are better.

I personally have gone thru times of hair loss while in a flare, and without itching or nodules/lesions there at that time. I also went thru some hair loss when scalp had massive lesions due to taking Rinvoq. The hair loss stopped when I stopped taking it, and when flare done.

If it was hereditary, wouldn't you know that information? I understand if a person is adopted, etc, but, why else would you ask them that...?
