LANGDURIGE DIFFUSE UITVAL

Chronic telogen effluvium: when hair loss persists

Wanneer diffuse haaruitval langer dan ongeveer zes maanden blijft bestaan, wordt vaak gesproken over chronisch telogeen effluvium. Dan is een bredere beoordeling van het verloop belangrijk.

In brief

  • Het patroon blijft diffuus zonder één duidelijke kale plek.
  • Triggers kunnen aanhouden, terugkeren of overlappen.
  • Chronische diffuse uitval kan naast patroonverdunning bestaan.
  • Een langere tijdlijn helpt om het profiel zorgvuldig te beoordelen.

LONGER THAN EXPECTED

When do we call it chronic?

In cases of active diffuse hair loss lasting longer than approximately six months, the term chronic telogen effluvium is appropriate.

The intensity may vary while the hair follicles retain their ability to grow.

POSSIBLE CONTEXT

Why can it persist?

Ongoing stress, hormonal changes, illness, medication, or nutritional factors may play a role. Sometimes, no clear trigger can be identified.

Multiple influences may follow one another.

DIFFERENTIATE

Diffuse or patterned?

Chronic diffuse hair loss reduces density more evenly. An increasingly widening part or progressive thinning at the crown may indicate overlapping androgenetic alopecia.

Pattern and photos over time help distinguish between them.
