Telogen effluvium treatment in Austin.

Telogen effluvium is sudden, diffuse shedding that happens when a stressor pushes many follicles into the telogen (resting) phase at once. Common triggers include stress, illness, surgery and postpartum hormonal shifts — and it’s often recoverable.

What causes it

A shift into the resting phase.

A physical or emotional stressor — high stress, illness, rapid weight change, or the postpartum period — can push an unusual number of follicles into the telogen phase, leading to noticeable shedding weeks or months later.
The encouraging news: once the trigger resolves, hair often recovers. A diagnosis confirms telogen effluvium and rules out other causes.
