It is normal to lose about 100-150 hairs a day. Excessive hair shedding is called telogen effluvium and typically happens 3 months after a major stressor. Provided the root cause is addressed, in most cases the hair will go back to normal, however, some people do end up with a chronic telogen effluvium. Minoxidil can be helpful in these cases. #hairloss #hairshedding #hairgrowth #dermatologist | Dr Dray
