6. Why is my hair falling out after illness?

If you’ve suffered hair loss after an acute illness or stressful situation, you’ll know that the rate in which your hair falls out can be alarming. This phenomenon is called Telogen Effluvium or TE. 

 

In this episode of the Hair Loss in Women podcast Bambi talks to a woman who has recently recovered  from a bout of TE after a serious illness.

 

You’ll also hear exactly why illness and other stressful events can result in hair loss and what to do about it.

 

In this episode you’ll learn:

• What Telogen Effluvium is
• How long you’ll likely have to wait for your hair to grow back if you have a bout of TE
• Why it’s still a good idea to search for an underlying cause if you have TE
