Did you mean Telogen Count?

GlossaryTelogen Count

number of hair follicles in the resting phase

Telogen Count refers to the number of hair follicles in the telogen phase, which is the resting phase of the hair growth cycle. During this phase, hair is not actively growing and is eventually shed. A higher telogen count can indicate hair loss conditions such as telogen effluvium, where an abnormal number of hairs enter the resting phase simultaneously.
