What can I do to make TE STOP???

[scared2009]

I have been to two Dermatologist, and two Medical Doctors, I have had my thyroid checked which was fine and my ferritin checked which was low, I am now on iron. My hair is still shedding and I have VERY thin areas at the crown and all over the top, as a woman this is SUPER upsetting, all the Doctors say telogen effluvium since I had an VERY bad time about 3-4 months before this happen. It has now been about 3 months since I started shedding, I am going to be bald! What can I do, PLEASE PLEASE help me!!!

The first thing you need to do is probably calm down. You can see hair loss if you're very stressed out.

Aside from that, eat a healthy diet, and wait it out. It can take 6 to 9 months for hair to grow back to proper fullness.

If you can't wait that long, the next best thing to do is use something to cover it up. Something like Toppik or one of those other products.
