My Telogen Effluvium Story
by Melony Wilson
My hair loss happened 3 years ago. Just a normal day when I was washing my hair and all of a sudden I saw loads of hair in the sink. I tried to comb it and it was coming out in handfuls. I went to my General Practitioner the following day and the GP asked if there was a thyroid disease in the family and I said yes. My aunt has it so I went for a blood test for iron deficiency, thyroid, Anaemia and other potential conditions. I went back to the GP and he recommended me to a hair specialist. Well that was a waste of time as he just told me I had Telogen Effluvium and it can last for 6 months to 2 years and the more you stress to more it will fall out. As the time my hair fell out I used Regaine but didn’t work but instead made it worse so I used some tablets which cost 50 pounds a box. It was a rip off as it didn’t work either. I tried all sorts to no avail and in the end I just got used to my hair condition. Someday it was like straws and someday it was really greasy but nobody else could tell as every hair that falls is replaced by another hair so rest assured you won’t get any bald patches or go bald. You hair will just look really thin. Anyway, my hair stopped falling out after 2 years but I think all you should do is relax and it will turn itself around and don’t stress it to prevent further hair loss…
