What is the expected duration needed for telogen effluvium to end in months? mine is currently in 7th month and i still loose my hairs?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Telogen effluvium rarely lasts longer than six months, although some cases last longer. If hair loss persists without new hair growth, you may have a condition called alopecia areata or totalist. You need to see your doctor for a complete exam along with blood tests.

How do I stop my eyebrow hair loss? It was caused by using retinol cream which I stopped immediately after. Only my eyebrows have been falling for four months now. Is this telogen effluvium? Am I deficient in any vitamins? Any thyroid or iron issues?
