 I suggest seeing a hair loss expert now to evaluate and go over your condition and provide you information about your best treatment options. There are great non-invasive options like prp/progesterone and/or hair transplantation. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

This form of hair loss is known as telogen effluvium and dates 6-9 months to resolve from the day that the diet returns to normal. Not all patients get back to there original density, but most do. See a dermatologist if things don't improve. Anyone with a significant calorie restricted diet for a prolonged time should make sure they see a physician for blood tests to ensure they don't have a nutrient deficiency. Iron, zinc, B12 are among the more important ones.

Eat well. This type of hair loss in women usually comes back in 6 or so months with a good healthy diet
