Description
Kang and co-authors reviewed hair loss tied to weight loss in two thousand twenty-four. Telogen effluvium sheds hair diffusely after bodily stress. Rapid weight loss is one known trigger. Records came from a single center over fifteen years. One hundred forty patients fit the diagnosis. Most were women in their mid thirties.
The team recorded weight before and after loss. Loss speed and total share were computed per patient. Onset timing linked shedding to the slimming period. A clear quantitative tie emerged between loss and shedding. The study fills a thin spot in the literature. Dieters and clinicians get firmer expectations on timing. Hair recovery patterns are charted for counseling.
