I don’t understand why you say it’s not damaging? My hair has been falling out for 2 straight years. The dermatologist says it’s telogen effluvium (chronic) but I’ve lost 40 percent of my hair, that’s very damaging. I am seeing sections of my scalp never seen before. No, my part hasn’t widened but my scalp is visible when it wasn’t before. How is this not damaging? I’ve gone to the doctor 10 times. 4 to my primary, 6 to a dermatologist. I have no answers. No definitive diagnosis, no treatment plan. Zero plan of attack. This started at 42. Women are being failed. This destroys our life. Where do you go next? Who do you turn to for help?
I did 2 years as well… how did it start?… a toxic relationship, C-ptsd. And then many more Big events after. How did it stop? I moved to another county where I felt safe. It almost stopped immediately. That high cortisol for so long keeps it shedding, that stress! And watching it continue makes the stress worse. So managing cortisol levels is the only way. No more doctors, that makes the stress worse too! My heart goes out to you! ❤️🩹. I’m on such a long mend. And now I’m microneedling and everything else JUST WAITING by for ALL my hair to return. Btw, I lost about 60-70% I think. That was the most horrific thing to go through. And the fall out of it, pun intended (confidence level) is debilitating. Most people won’t notice it, but you. But you are who matters most!!! ❤
@@perrissmith8809my partner doesn’t understand this :/ I’m only 23 and I’ve lost my hair since we started dating. However it started before I met him, I believe I had started pulling it out.. till we started dating it sorta came back, and got really bad.. then I stopped! And it’s just gradually going now. I just want a break.
It should never take multiple dermatologists and multiple doctors to help you figure out why you’re losing your hair and still have no answers …….. it’s utterly ridiculous and I’m done , I will resort to investing in a few beautiful wigs as my last resort.
I’ve been losing hair since 2016, I took every possible pill you can think of or consider, did all the tests needed, saw tens of dermatologists and NOTHING worked, I went from having the thickest hair in all the family to having the finest, I was forced to wear the hijab my whole life and my only reason for putting up with the torture of wearing it daily is the thought of me enjoying my beautiful hair when I leave the country and now I can’t do it anymore I was miserably robbed of such simple wish, I’m so so close to giving up on life as a whole
Don't give up, so many problems are stress/inflammation related, so targeting that specifically will both make you feel a lot better about yourself, and likely reverse/slow down some damage so you can explore better avenues. You have to do A LOT of research, but the information is out there, and when you find the thing you needed, you get your life back. So try - CBD, magnesium bicarbonate, UVB bulb, that will help the stress. Also try black castor oil, biotin, and silica for hair regrowth. Hope this helps.
My scalp goes through chronic TE, but in a different way than is described in this video. Any little ole stress sends a large portion of my head into TE. A family reunion, having a construction project worked on, a vehicle breakdown, dog getting out of the yard and running away... normal stressors that all people must deal with. But as I'm growing older and less resilient to stress, my hair automatically goes into TE at least twice a year every time something stressful (but minor) happens. Therefore my "long" hair maxes out at 12" or less, but now I have 1" hairs all over, 2" hairs all over, 3 inch hairs all over, 4 inch hairs all over... you get the idea. When I was younger I could make a nice pony-tail of mostly all the same length hair strands and go about my day. Now I look like a chia pet and have to wear it in 2 mini-ponies and a headband to keep from reminding people of the crypt-keeper. (sigh)
Having it seasonally is common, so if you get it in the later summer, that may be the explanation for that loss. Maybe there's a way to control the stress for the loss during your other peak period of loss. Also, if you have something like CPTSD (I do), it might be worth it to look at somatic treatments for that because it can make all those minor stressors worse, too.
HIGH ESTROGEN!! I've been having bad hair loss for four years!! At the same time, I was taking BHRT which included estrogen therapy. I stopped all estrogen hormones, did an estrogen detox, and also started mega dosing progesterone. My hair loss stopped 100% in it's tracks at 56 years old. Menopause is not a state of estrogen deficiency, it's the opposite. Estrogen becomes dominant in menopause because the body stops making progesterone. The estrogen is then unapposed. Estrogen is a stress hormone. To prevent hair loss when we become peri or menopausal, we must regulate our estrogen dominance and instead make progesterone dominant.
Did your hair grow back after stopping estrogen hormones? What dosage of estradiol (if you were taking that) were you on and how did you body react to the withdrawal from it? Also what was your regimen for progesterone?
only if you are intact...if you've had a hysterectomy, you wouldn't have a huge surplus of estrogen...but good point to being up to those who are intact.
I’ve seen two dermatologists and neither one has been able to tell me why I’m losing so much hair. One told me to use minoxidil and relax. The other told me to use ketoconazole shampoo. None of these things are helping. I’ve lost more than half of my hair and it’s still falling out. I’m a 42 year old woman and bloodwork was normal. I do have random itching that still itches even right after washing. I’m so depressed and embarrassed that I don’t even want to leave my house. I’ve always had thick hair and this is literally killing me. I truly believe that I would rather die than go bald. That might sound crazy I know, but it’s the truth. Idk how to deal with this.
It’s been TWO years for me now. Had the VID in 2021, got Tel Effluv very bad!!! I used to have such thick, long beautiful hair. I’ve tried everything! Creams, conditioners, vitamins… you name it, I’ve tried it. Just swept my bathroom floor yesterday… two years later…so much hair loss and this is the worst my hair has been!! People say it’s temporary and it will grow back? Hasn’t for me! At 60 I have to start wearing wigs. 😢
This also happens in men. It started when I was 15 and it affected my temples and thinned. Then my right temple started thickening up a lot and went back to normal. All of a sudden my temples started thinning again and has stayed the same. I went to a dermatologist and told me the only way to fix it was to bring my stress levels lower and eat well and so I did. I’m guessing I have chronic cuz it relapses for me. I noticed the insane shedding when I got the covid shot but also I was missing vitamins and I went thru a terrible breakup. So that’s was caused it but it wont go away. I’m 17 now
First diagnosed with TE, then non-scaring alopecia and now LPP. I periodically get TE without any obvious triggers. Washing daily does help with itching and an ice pack for burning for the LPP. I believe menopause brought it on and hormonal fluctuations seem to effect it.
I wish I could find a doctor like this who is knowledgeable on this…. My dermatologist is great but just seems stumped. I’ve always had thin and fine hair but I’ve lost over half my hair in the last few months. I have had either scalp dermatitis or psoriasis off and on since my teen years, and right now and I am in a major flare which has been going on a few months now. My doctor did give me mediation to calm down the scalp. Labs have all come back ok except my vitamin D. I have had some major stressors the last few years (a divorce the last 2 years, a good friend dying a few months ago, and finding out my mom had terminal cancer 3 months ago).
got covid May 2023 and by july almost to the day, my hair was shedding enough to make a wig nearly! Now it's Sept and it's still shedding...i wasn't bad sick with C19, it lasted a few days, no big deal...wasn't stressed..i'm unvaxxed....now, my hair is about 50% gone! horrible...ugh
My hairloss started, or I noticed it, in October 2022 - clumps of hair were coming out and my overall hair when I was washing it seemed sooo thin. I had covid on 7/30/22 and blood tests in February 2023 that showed ferritin at 14 and vitamin D at 24. So the dermatologist (said it was TE in February 2023) stated I needed iron IV and 50000 IU Vitamin D3. My levels were all fine by May 2023. My hair stopped shedding by February, but my overall hair is so much less dense - my ponytail is less than 1/2 than what it was. I do not notice bald spots or really a substantial spreading of the part -it is totally more diffused loss. I notice tons of new hairs but the front of my hair under direct light is very thin. So it has been 14 months since I noticed the shedding and I honestly do not feel like my hair thickness has remotely returned, my ponytail is super small and over all my hair is sooo much thinner. I do notice little hairs all over but I am worried as every other video I have seen talked about how in a year they had their hair back. How long from the moment you noticed shedding did your hair return to normal. I am also almost 50yo. The fact that it is not fuller by now - is that indicative that I likely have AGA?
Can you talk about the white bulb when shedding? My dermatologist tells me that’s indicative of if it’s a telogen effluvium shed vs miniaturising. Is there a hard and fast way to tell the difference by looking at the hair?
I want to hear about this too. I wonder how true it is. Also, I’ve heard mixed reviews that TE causes miniaturisation. Some say it does, others say it doesn’t.
😢same here, reaching nearly 2 1/2 years now of chronic shedding. I shed all hair lengths with the white bulb. I had multiple traumatic experiences back to back to back. Hoping we both get relief eventually 😭
I know how you feel, mine has and still is doing after 4 years. I’m male, so I’m in the more minority with TE. But at least it’s good to know the course. 😊
Im 19 now and i had telogen effluvium when i was 17,after i got covid. The shedding didn't stopped after 19 months.the shedding comes periodically for continuous 2-3 months and stop for 2-4 months. I don't know how to stop it
I'm having intense diffused sheding for about 2 years or so . I am a male and trying to get over it . I used rednsyl procapil bicapil for about a year and now on monoxidil . I don't see receding temples yet . I just don't know what to do . I was wondering if should i try finastride ? I'm most of the time afraid of even touching my hair as it's very sensitive . I've stopped combing my hair for about two years . I see thinning but not really that much .
i have it almost 2 years too bro. my doctor said sometimes cte causes aga thats why i started using minoxidil. my all tests like hormon , vitamins are ok but still i have cte. idk what can i do anymore
I’ve experienced TE from Covid. I’m losing hair in the same fashion from epidurals & steroid shots in my back. I stopped doing the injections and I’m wondering when my hair will grow back what can I do handfuls the size of softballs of the long hairs it’s scary. How long does it usually take to recover from those kind of injections and epidurals hair loss?
Hi, i have question, if woman are suffering from fibroid, can they take finasteride, because some doctors telling that they shouldnt, and some have the diffrent opinion. What is your opinion? Great job you are doing for people who are suffering for hair conditions!
Yeah dw it's reversible, ur hair fociccles are still alive, use some essential oils and massage for blood circulation and ur hair will grow back healthily :) I wish u luck!
My long hair started shedding a few months after I got covid in august of 2021. I know it is growing back because now I am losing the shorter hairs that are only about 4 inches long. It’s so frustrating but I am trying not to stress about it but it’s getting really thin
Same Here:( Over the last 5 yrs I’ve had TE happen at least twice a year. I never have the chance to grow back what I lost so now I barely have any hair. I will finally start seeing new growth again and maybe get 3-4inches and then I’m shedding it all again. It makes me cry. Once it starts it’s about 4-6mos of shedding. I do have autoimmune diseases. I have Hypothyroidism , Gaft vs Host Disease and scleroderma. My doctors can’t give me answers other than my immune system is just triggered extremely easily:( If anyone has any info they feel would be helpful to me please let me know. It would be greatly appreciated. I don’t know if there is any kind of medication or natural herb or something that you can take to calm the immune system so it’s not triggered so easily and you can stay in the growth stage longer. I wanted to try taking Ashwagandha because nutrafol uses that in their hair vitamins because they say Ashwagandha calms the body therefore less stressor triggers. But my Doctors don’t want me to take Ashwagandha because they say you shouldn’t if you take immune suppressants (which I do) Sometime Doctors don’t understand natural remedies and they just say no. Often contemplate if I just should try. I did watch a video recently and they talked about that medication Spironolactone girls with hormonal acne will take to help their acne. They said something about it helping your hair cycles? I need to do more research. Also have read about Horsetail extract can help hair. Again need to do more research. There was a few things about horsetail extract to be careful about.Any info I would love to hear. Blessings to Everyone❤
My hair shedding makes a huge mess everywhere especially in the shower. Now I have to spend extra cleaning it up with paper towels every time I shower. It started after Covid vaxxed in 2021.
Isn't it true that you have a limited number of "rounds" let's say that your clock can run? In other words, your hair follicle has a genetically preprogrammed and limited number of cycles before it starts thinning your hair and then falling out. Is this people bald earlier than others?
My hair fall and the thinning started when I was 15 and after 6 years my hair fall stopped automatically without any medication and regrowth started and increased my hair volume as well as length but after 6 months hair fall started again without any reason what kind of hairfall is this?
Hi! 🙏❓ I've been losing TONS of hair going on 2 yrs. Do have some balding now bc it's been going on so long. No genetic hairloss. Punch biopsy showed TE. Been on max dose spironolactone for yrs for acne, tried top minoxidil 5% since it started. No luck. My derm says nothing I can do. She won't try finasteride or dutasteride. Says it doesn't help TE. No itching, irritation, flaking, dandruff, etc. Bloodwork all normal. I think it's bc I'm in perimenopause?? Any shampoo recommendations or anything else I can try? Thank u!!🥰
It really does if - after the hairloss is gone. Lets assume you want to regrow some hair which didn't regrows back easy, then you can definitely use rosemary or min. And you can stop when you got results, since its not due to DHT (and thus not permanent to use.)
😊We all should see that majority of comments have this problem since 3 years ago... When pandemic hit. Maybe is a corealation between virus - which has gone through us(without knowing or knowing) - and this telogen effluvium. I am 3 years in... in this "awful game". 😮 It's cronic, without solution... and unknown trigger. 😅
I have chronic telogen effluvium and I KNOW it's not good to do but am still bleaching my roots like I've always done...like yea all that and more is not good for ur hair and causes breakage and split ends but I feel like my hairs continuing to fall out ALOT anyway, so I'd rather feel a little better with the coloring than feeling more like sh*t with gray/blonde hair and ugly dark roots...but I am VERY nervous whenever I do it
Docs can you give your opinion on the myth about masturbation and hairloss? Some people say it increases T levels leading to increase odlf Dht. Will be good to know in another video cause its a the question of many people
Brother please reply I loss weight 7 kg in two months … Then hair fall start 3 months after …. And from february 2023 hairfall , start now october 2023 and its still losing but less around 40 strands to 60 But catch us that u never loss a single hair before weight loss When i wash my hair two days my hair dont fall but when hair become oily then when i move hair with hand hair comes out pull test is poisitive How long does it take to stop and new hair when will grow sir in telogen effluvium when new hair come How many months or years or after hairfall stop then it will come or what Is it telogen effluvium or mpb . Previous years since my birth i have no hair fall it start just after weight losss
I started shedding 2 years ago (ive been on finasteride and minoxidil for almost 10 years). I got a scalp biopsy and was.told I had chronic TE. For the last year I've been on oral Dutasteride and oral Minoxidil but im still losing ground fast. What else can I do?
@@laurenv2003 My derm is willing to do anything but problem is nothing working. He's willing to prescribe anything (topical or oral) and an dosage but unfortunately not much is working. I'm trying to be optimistic that shedding will stop soon. Fingers crossed.
Same here ! Been almost 3 years and I hate how some of these doctors are so invalidating. “You still got thick hair, what are you complaining about attitude”! Like relax I had been blessed genetically to have two heads full of hair but now it’s less than one average head! My loss isn’t trivial because I initially began with an extremely high volume….. 🙄🙄🙄
@@khankhalifa8555 No clue, it was like a switch was flipped one day for no apparent reason. I had lots of blood tests done in the beginning and all were normal. Was thinking to have more done soon in case they show anything helpful. This video is the first I've seen to emphasize the importance of washing. I have definitely been afraid to do that. I am going to try it and ask my derm about an Rx shampoo. I started Minoxidil around month 14 and that's helped some. Started LLLT recently, that seems to have helped some. I read that Lysine may help chronic TE.

I've stopped combing my hair for about two years . I see thinning but not really that much .
No! Finasteride is only for DHT hair loss, not for telogen effluvium.
Same here
i have it almost 2 years too bro. my doctor said sometimes cte causes aga thats why i started using minoxidil. my all tests like hormon , vitamins are ok but still i have cte. idk what can i do anymore
I’ve experienced TE from Covid. I’m losing hair in the same fashion from epidurals & steroid shots in my back. I stopped doing the injections and I’m wondering when my hair will grow back what can I do handfuls the size of softballs of the long hairs it’s scary. How long does it usually take to recover from those kind of injections and epidurals hair loss?
Hi, i have question, if woman are suffering from fibroid, can they take finasteride, because some doctors telling that they shouldnt, and some have the diffrent opinion. What is your opinion? Great job you are doing for people who are suffering for hair conditions!
Is chronic tellogen effluvium reversible tho like can you grow healthy hair after
Yeah dw it's reversible, ur hair fociccles are still alive, use some essential oils and massage for blood circulation and ur hair will grow back healthily :) I wish u luck!
it really is? cause i was using essential oils for 2 months and i didnt see results@@Midzyforeva
@@boredom430 urs might take some more time to grow, but yes I’m 100% sure it’s reversible
@@boredom430hows your hair now
My long hair started shedding a few months after I got covid in august of 2021. I know it is growing back because now I am losing the shorter hairs that are only about 4 inches long. It’s so frustrating but I am trying not to stress about it but it’s getting really thin
Any update
same my life is ruined
also i have hypothyroidism and been taking levothyrox
Same Here:( Over the last 5 yrs I’ve had TE happen at least twice a year. I never have the chance to grow back what I lost so now I barely have any hair. I will finally start seeing new growth again and maybe get 3-4inches and then I’m shedding it all again. It makes me cry. Once it starts it’s about 4-6mos of shedding. I do have autoimmune diseases. I have Hypothyroidism , Gaft vs Host Disease and scleroderma. My doctors can’t give me answers other than my immune system is just triggered extremely easily:( If anyone has any info they feel would be helpful to me please let me know. It would be greatly appreciated. I don’t know if there is any kind of medication or natural herb or something that you can take to calm the immune system so it’s not triggered so easily and you can stay in the growth stage longer. I wanted to try taking Ashwagandha because nutrafol uses that in their hair vitamins because they say Ashwagandha calms the body therefore less stressor triggers. But my Doctors don’t want me to take Ashwagandha because they say you shouldn’t if you take immune suppressants (which I do) Sometime Doctors don’t understand natural remedies and they just say no. Often contemplate if I just should try. I did watch a video recently and they talked about that medication Spironolactone girls with hormonal acne will take to help their acne. They said something about it helping your hair cycles? I need to do more research. Also have read about Horsetail extract can help hair. Again need to do more research. There was a few things about horsetail extract to be careful about.Any info I would love to hear.
Blessings to Everyone❤
Same it genuinely only started during COVID I didn’t have any problems w/ my hair before
My hair shedding makes a huge mess everywhere especially in the shower. Now I have to spend extra cleaning it up with paper towels every time I shower. It started after Covid vaxxed in 2021.
COVID itself causes telogen effluvium with much greater frequency.
Isn't it true that you have a limited number of "rounds" let's say that your clock can run? In other words, your hair follicle has a genetically preprogrammed and limited number of cycles before it starts thinning your hair and then falling out. Is this people bald earlier than others?
My hair fall and the thinning started when I was 15 and after 6 years my hair fall stopped automatically without any medication and regrowth started and increased my hair volume as well as length but after 6 months hair fall started again without any reason what kind of hairfall is this?
same
Hi! 🙏❓ I've been losing TONS of hair going on 2 yrs. Do have some balding now bc it's been going on so long. No genetic hairloss. Punch biopsy showed TE. Been on max dose spironolactone for yrs for acne, tried top minoxidil 5% since it started. No luck. My derm says nothing I can do. She won't try finasteride or dutasteride. Says it doesn't help TE. No itching, irritation, flaking, dandruff, etc. Bloodwork all normal. I think it's bc I'm in perimenopause?? Any shampoo recommendations or anything else I can try? Thank u!!🥰
prp
Does minoxidil help for telogen effluvium?
It really does if - after the hairloss is gone. Lets assume you want to regrow some hair which didn't regrows back easy, then you can definitely use rosemary or min. And you can stop when you got results, since its not due to DHT (and thus not permanent to use.)
Per my dermatologist yes if it's chronic
😊We all should see that majority of comments have this problem since 3 years ago... When pandemic hit.
Maybe is a corealation between virus - which has gone through us(without knowing or knowing) - and this telogen effluvium.
I am 3 years in... in this "awful game". 😮 It's cronic, without solution... and unknown trigger. 😅
Can you highlight your hair if you already have telogen effluvium?
I have chronic telogen effluvium and I KNOW it's not good to do but am still bleaching my roots like I've always done...like yea all that and more is not good for ur hair and causes breakage and split ends but I feel like my hairs continuing to fall out ALOT anyway, so I'd rather feel a little better with the coloring than feeling more like sh*t with gray/blonde hair and ugly dark roots...but I am VERY nervous whenever I do it
@@charlie.b.6311omg you are me in another person. I feel your pain my dear.
Docs can you give your opinion on the myth about masturbation and hairloss? Some people say it increases T levels leading to increase odlf Dht. Will be good to know in another video cause its a the question of many people
Sup guys! Great content as usual!
Brother please reply
I loss weight 7 kg in two months …
Then hair fall start 3 months after ….
And from february 2023 hairfall , start now october 2023 and its still losing but less around 40 strands to 60
But catch us that u never loss a single hair before weight loss
When i wash my hair two days my hair dont fall but when hair become oily then when i move hair with hand hair comes out pull test is poisitive
How long does it take to stop and new hair when will grow sir in telogen effluvium when new hair come
How many months or years or after hairfall stop then it will come or what
Is it telogen effluvium or mpb .
Previous years since my birth i have no hair fall it start just after weight losss
Has it stopped?
I started shedding 2 years ago (ive been on finasteride and minoxidil for almost 10 years). I got a scalp biopsy and was.told I had chronic TE. For the last year I've been on oral Dutasteride and oral Minoxidil but im still losing ground fast. What else can I do?
Going thru EXACT issue! At my wits end. Derm won't do anything!
@@laurenv2003 My derm is willing to do anything but problem is nothing working. He's willing to prescribe anything (topical or oral) and an dosage but unfortunately not much is working. I'm trying to be optimistic that shedding will stop soon. Fingers crossed.
Been shedding long hair for 2 years now 😢, went to severeral doctors and still dont know if it is chronic TE or what. Came on very suddenly.
Same here ! Been almost 3 years and I hate how some of these doctors are so invalidating. “You still got thick hair, what are you complaining about attitude”! Like relax I had been blessed genetically to have two heads full of hair but now it’s less than one average head! My loss isn’t trivial because I initially began with an extremely high volume….. 🙄🙄🙄
@@khankhalifa8555 Same! It is so stressful and frustrating!
@@twelfthhour I hope it stops for both of us! Have you got any idea what the cause for you may be ?
@@khankhalifa8555 No clue, it was like a switch was flipped one day for no apparent reason. I had lots of blood tests done in the beginning and all were normal. Was thinking to have more done soon in case they show anything helpful. This video is the first I've seen to emphasize the importance of washing. I have definitely been afraid to do that. I am going to try it and ask my derm about an Rx shampoo. I started Minoxidil around month 14 and that's helped some. Started LLLT recently, that seems to have helped some. I read that Lysine may help chronic TE.
@@khankhalifa8555my hair is also fall in past 2 year and no regrowth
Why don’t you reply back to people questions, it’s makes me wanna unsubscribe
I’d imagine it’s because they’re both old dudes or are just busy given their occupation
Try anxiety medication folks, it stopped my hair loss.
So no answers.
i think if you have chronic telogen effluvium you have to use minoxidil to recycle hair follicules. after that you can stop using
@@boredom430 never use minoxidil, becausr once you stop using it your regrowth hair will fallback. Minoxidil is a lifeling process.
All my hairs are cut to one inch long...so i dont know how long they would be if i let the things grow. They gray haired guy is cute. Thanks.
Abhi abhi recover hua hu isse
👍👍👍
Just eat your hairs and it will grow back indefinitely.
Is this a joke? No one likes bad jokes.
