How long does telogen effluvium last?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Telogen Effluvium: T. Effluvium generally resolves spontaneously within 6 months. It is caused by an initial stressful event such as surgery, or even pregnancy. Once the stress has resolved, the hair should return within 6 months. It is important to see a physician to make sure that t. Effluvium is the cause for the hair loss.
