Telogen Effluvium
Telogen effluvium occurs when the hair stays in the natural shedding stage of the growth cycle, also known as the telogen phase. This leads to the loss of more hairs, sometimes in clumps. Common causes of telogen effluvium may include childbirth, surgery, serious stress, thyroid issues, unexpected weight loss, and side effects of certain drugs. In most cases, it is a temporary disorder that improves over time. Hair may grow back once the underlying causes are resolved. [5]
