Hair growth occurs in a continuous cycle made up of three key phases. At any given time, each hair follicle is in a different phase — this is what maintains normal hair density. When this cycle is disrupted, excessive shedding and thinning can occur.

• Anagen (Growth) Phase — The hair follicle is actively growing at a rate of ¼ - ½ in per month, lasting 2-6 years depending on genetics and overall health. Approximately 85–90% of hairs are in this phase.

• Catagen (Transition) Phase – The follicle stops growing and begins to shrink, detaching from its blood supply in preparation to shed. It’s a brief but critical reset stage lasting 2-4 weeks.

• Telogen (Resting) Phase – The hair will remain in the follicle for 3-5 months until it is ready to shed. It is normal to shed around 50-100 hairs per day. After shedding, the follicle re-enters the growth phase and begins producing new hair.

Hair loss is often the result of disruptions to the natural hair growth cycle. Two of the most common causes we see at Energlow is telogen effluvium and androgenic alopecia. While they may appear similar, the underlying causes are very different and require targeted treatment approaches.

• Telogen Effluvium (stress-induced shedding) – A temporary form of hair loss that occurs when a significant stressor causes a large number of hair follicles to prematurely shift from the growth (anagen) phase into the shedding (telogen) phase.

  This is common in GLP-1 patients due to rapid weight loss. Other key causes include emotional or physical stress, hormonal shifts, and chronic medical conditions/surgery.

  It’s alarming to notice an increase in shedding when brushing or washing your hair. Your hair might also feel thin, weak, and less dense.

• Androgenic Alopecia (hormonal hair thinning) – A progressive form of hair thinning caused by hormonal changes, specifically increased sensitivity to DHT (dihydrotestosterone). This is common in patients that are post-partum, perimenopausal and menopausal.

  You may experience gradual thinning, especially at the crown and widening of the part line. The decrease in volume and density happens over time, unlike the sudden shedding of telogen effluvium.
