Apparently I have Telogen Effluvium. My hair isn't thick anymore. I was prescribed Clobetasol. Is this a good option?

1. Does anybody prescribed clobetasol for TE? 2. Can use a product called Vichy Dercos Aminixil for TE?. 3. There is another product called Dercos Neogenic with stemoxydine 5% from Vichy that promised 1700 new hairs. Should I start using that to awake my telogen stage follicles to regrow my hair? It's very frustated that is not much information about this condition, and In this moment I am doing my own investigation in how to combat TE. Any suggestions in what product to use. Thank you!!!
