Hi I believe im in an episode of telogen effluvium, this is how i believe it started. Stress, then on top of that i ate enough vitamins that it was the equivalent of 5 overdoses of vitamin a in two days. Its been 5 months, and ive noticed my scalp is reddish, could this be inflammation?. the hair loss has been fairly slow compared to the stories ive heard but im very young and have extremely thick hair. im seeing miniature hairs pop up all over and theyre growing, but they dont make a difference in my coverage. what are signs of definite telogen ending? and are these miniature hairs a sign of thick regrowth in the near near future? Any answer is best answer.
