I recently had a huge shed after I went on keto diet and lost about 20 pounds in just a month. My hair density decreased evenly and more on my part. I am 23 male Indian with no premature balding in family. My father has diffuse kind of hairloss and that too at 56 age.I was pretty sure I am having telogen effluvium but after I took a snap of my scalp I am kind of worried to see short thin hairs. Are these minituarised hair or are they just telogen hairs which will grow thicker.
