The answer to this commonly asked question has many layers. Firstly, you must ask yourself what you consider to be a stress or trauma. For instance, while some people may not necessarily view a minor surgical procedure as a trauma or stress trigger, others would definitely regard it as being so. You see, any event that puts a strain on your body, either emotionally or physically, can trigger Telogen Efflvium, and can lead to sudden hair loss.

Next, there are other causes of Telogen Effluvium that are not stress or trauma related. For example, certain medications can trigger Telogen Effluvium, as well as allergies to certain environmental elements or medications. There is an extensive list of medications here that can cause sudden hair loss, in fact. In addition, extensive traveling, jet lag and hormonal changes can bring on Telogen Effluvium. Certain medical conditions, such as thyroid abnormalities, anemia, or diabetes can trigger Telogen Effluvium as well.

Lastly, you should really take a closer look at your recent personal events and try to determine if anything that you have experienced could be the trigger. It may be something that seems relatively small, but when more closely examined, put a significant strain on your body for one reason or another. For instance, of you suffered a slip and fall three months ago, even if you weren’t injured in the accident, that may be your Telogen Effluvium trigger.

The good news is that once you correct the original trigger your hair growth cycle will resume back to normal.
