Tretinoin can cause non-telogen hair loss in some men by inducing catagen-like changes in hair follicles and through retinoid toxicity, especially when used with minoxidil. Some users report hair loss even when using retinoids on the face, while others experience benefits when combined with treatments like finasteride and minoxidil.

Chronic Telogen Effluvium can be managed by avoiding inflammatory foods, exercising, staying hydrated, and using supplements like krill oil, saw palmetto, or licorice root. Minoxidil is discouraged due to its cost and potential for worsening hair loss, while castor oil is recommended to strengthen hair roots and reduce shedding.

The user experienced hair loss diagnosed as chronic Telogen Effluvium and male pattern baldness, treated with finasteride and minoxidil, later switching to dutasteride due to side effects but with limited success. The user plans to return to finasteride due to side effects from dutasteride, while others suggest maintaining consistent treatment and considering additional options like oral minoxidil and lifestyle changes.

Caffeine might raise stress hormones, potentially worsening hair loss. Telogen effluvium is often misattributed to minor stressors rather than significant life events.

A 27-year-old woman with advanced female pattern hair loss and telogen effluvium is experiencing increased hair shedding after starting oral minoxidil and finasteride. She is seeking advice and reassurance from others who have experienced similar issues, while also considering additional treatments like dermapen and ensuring her nutritional needs are met.
