What's the difference between telogen effluivium v. s dehydrotestesterone? which do i have? i have new hairs growing but it is thinner than original

Not alternatives: The question you make does not make sense. Are you asking the difference between telogen effluvium and male pattern baldness? The former does not result in long term thinning of the hair, you will just notice a lot of hair in the brush or shower for a while but then this will stop and hair will look normal. With the latter you will have thinning hair, especially on top, like a balding man :(
