In this study of women with female pattern hair loss, iron deficiency was associated with the condition due to significantly lower serum ferritin and altered hematological indices compared to healthy controls, while no significant differences in serotonin levels or renal function were observed.

This study reports that nonscarring diffuse hair loss in women is most common in the 21-40 age group, with low serum ferritin, vitamin B12, and vitamin D3 levels contributing to its pathogenesis.

Telogen effluvium is a condition where hair falls out due to various factors like illness, stress, or nutrient deficiency.

This study found that most cases of telogen effluvium in Iraqi women had no clear triggering factor, although significant hair thinning was uncommon.

In this study, most Iraqi women with telogen effluvium had no identifiable triggers, though severe stress was noted in 21% of cases prior to the condition onset.

In this study, researchers explored the causes and treatment strategies for diffuse telogen effluvium, focusing on 60 patients with the condition linked to iron deficiency anemia, comparing the effectiveness of ferrous salts alone versus combined with Quilib lotion.

In this case report, a 28-year-old female developed allergic contact dermatitis from prolonged use of 5% topical minoxidil, suggesting that minoxidil itself may often be responsible for such reactions rather than propylene glycol.

This article addresses the need to screen for nutrient deficiencies in patients with hair loss but reports no new findings, noting that supplementation without deficiency may not be beneficial and could pose risks.

This study found that women with nonscarring alopecia had lower ferritin levels compared to women without the condition.

This study found that the reticulocyte hemoglobin content (CHr) most frequently indicated iron deficiency in female patients with diffuse non-scarring hair loss.

This study found that vitamin D, vitamin B12, and iron deficiencies, along with thyroid dysfunction, may be associated with telogen effluvium.

This study found that alopecia areata is linked with a higher prevalence of systemic and psychiatric diseases, suggesting that physicians should monitor for these potential comorbidities.

This review discusses how changes in hair and skin may indicate underlying vitamin deficiencies and emphasizes the need to identify populations at risk for these deficiencies; it reports no new results.

This review discusses telogen effluvium, a common type of hair loss, focusing on differentiation from other conditions and potential causes, but presents no new research findings.

This study observed that telogen effluvium was the most common form of acquired alopecia among females in a semiurban Indian population, with stress and chemical exposure as major exacerbating factors.

This study observed that Nepalese dermatologists commonly manage telogen effluvium with counseling and supplements, despite the lack of a consensus management guideline.

This study found that among 100 females with chronic telogen effluvium, approximately two-thirds had low levels of serum ferritin and vitamin D, while vitamin B12 deficiency was observed in only about one-third of the participants.

Hair loss that spreads out can often fix itself or be treated by finding and handling the cause.

This review found that patients with alopecia areata may have lower levels of vitamin D, zinc, and folate, but conflicting evidence precludes definitive clinical recommendations for micronutrient supplementation.

This study compared serum zinc, vitamin B12, folic acid levels, iron metabolism, and thyroid function between chronic telogen effluvium patients and healthy controls, but it reports no specific clinical results.

This article discusses telogen effluvium, emphasizing the importance of understanding its natural progression and highlights the need for a detailed patient evaluation but provides no new clinical results.

This study found that women with telogen effluvium had significantly lower serum ferritin levels compared to healthy controls, suggesting an association between iron deficiency and this form of hair loss.

This study found that female patients with telogen effluvium had significantly lower levels of serum ferritin, folate, and vitamin B12 compared to the control group.

This study found that telogen effluvium was the most common type of diffuse hair loss among women, with psychological stress and iron deficiency anemia being significant contributing factors.

This review discusses telogen effluvium, including its triggers, clinical presentations, and management options, and does not report new research findings, emphasizing the need for identification and exclusion of underlying causes.

This study found that premature hair graying is strongly associated with a family history, Vitamin B12 deficiency, and hypothyroidism, with onset as early as 5 years in patients in Gurugram, India.

Proper nutrition and alternative therapies can help manage hair loss.

This study found that dermoscopy can help differentiate between types of diffuse alopecia in females, with yellow dots common in telogen effluvium and hair diameter diversity over 20% significant in female androgenetic alopecia.

In this study, zinc deficiency, iron depletion, and thyroid abnormalities were commonly observed in female pattern hair loss patients, suggesting the benefit of testing for these conditions.

This article discusses misconceptions around mineral nutrition in beef cattle and emphasizes that sub-clinical deficiencies or toxicities, rather than overt symptoms, often cause economic losses, but it reports no new findings.
