Description:

On an average person's head, between 85% and 90% of the hairs are actively growing (the anagen phase) at any given time, with the remaining hairs resting (the telogen phase). The life cycle of a hair includes a period of two to four years in the anagen phase, followed by a resting phase (telogen phase) lasting two to four months, and finally, hair loss followed by fresh hair growth. About 100 hairs normally fall out of an average individual per day. More hairs enter the telogen phase in a person with telogen effluvium due to a bodily alteration or trauma. About 30% of the hairs in this situation usually stop growing and enter the resting phase before falling out. Consequently, you can lose 300 hairs on average every day rather than 100 if you have telogen effluvium.

Cause:

There are several distinct events that might cause telogen effluvium, including: Surgery to scalp  Severe physical injury significant emotional stress intense fever, serious infection, or other disease drastic reduction in weight Abrupt hormonal changes, such as those brought on by childbirth and menopause, severe dietary changes Lack of iron Certain drugs A number of illnesses have been linked to telogen effluvium. Being either hyperthyroid or hypothyroid Malaria Tuberculosis Typhoid HIV

Symptoms:

Telogen effluvium can cause you to lose between 30% and 50% of your hair.More hair than normal will accumulate on your pillowcase, on the floor of the shower or bathroom, and in your hairbrush if you have telogen effluvium. The density of your scalp hair may appear or feel lower than usual. However, most hair loss is mild, so you might not even notice that your hair has changed.
