When can I expect to see firat signs of hair regrowth after telogen effluvium?

Leah Car
Extreme shed of 1200 hairs a day since 1st March after severe pneumonia. Fall is less now but maybe as I only have a quarter of the hair i had at the start. Supposing this is telogen effluvium (3 i dependent derms say it likely is), when could I expect to see first signs of regrowth? How long can I go without regrowth and still expect regrowth from TE? Nothing regrowing yet. Thanks again! Grateful for all answers
