Marlene Lufen Discusses Stress‑Induced Hair Loss on Podcast

German television presenter Marlene Lufen talked about her most difficult personal period on the podcast “M wie Marlene – Wie gelingt das Leben?”. She described how caring for her children, coping with her mother’s worsening Alzheimer disease and the constant pressure of her TV duties led to severe stress that manifested as noticeable hair loss.

Lufen continued to host the SAT.1 Frühstücksfernsehen program throughout this time, later noting that her hair has begun to regrow. She now makes a point of taking short daily breaks, starting her mornings without a smartphone, and focusing on self‑care to prevent a repeat of the previous strain.
