[SOLVED] Flask randomly returns user as not logged in when they are

I have a reasonably sized Flask project that works fine when run locally, however, when run via Apache or Nginx Server (locally hosted or externally hosted) users will occasionally be prompted that they are not logged in before getting redirected several times.

Below is the log showing the user being redirected from / to /login 9 times before being logged in.

The user does not need to log back in, and just refreshing the page a few times will work, however this issue keeps cropping up.

My user_loader function is as followed;

@login_manager.user_loader
def load_user(user_id):
    return db.session.get(User, int(user_id))

Because I cannot replicate the issue reliably I am unable to provide an example.

I am using;

Flask-SQLAlchemy 3.1.1
Flask 3.0.2
Flask-Login 0.6.3
Flask-WTF 1.2.1
Nginx version: nginx/1.18.0 (Ubuntu)

Database is mysql Ver 8.0.35 with PhpMyAdmin hosted on the same machine.

Nginx configurations;

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name [REDACTED URL];
        
    access_log      /var/log/nginx/access.[REDACTED URL].log;
    error_log       /var/log/nginx/error.[REDACTED URL].log;

    location / {
        proxy_pass http://unix:/home/gunicorn/run/[REDACTED URL].sock;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $host;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Prefix /;
    };
}
