Why am I losing around 1000 hairs a day since mid of December 2017?

Asked By:watter in Sweden, SE

I had mononucleosis together with tonsillitis for two weeks in October 2017. Since the 12th of December 2017 (about 1.5 months after mono) I’m suffering from massive hair shedding. I’ve already lost over 50% of my hair. If it continues with this speed, I’ll go bald within less than a month. Will it ever stop and will I lose all my long hair? Is it acute teologen effluvium that I have? It says it stops within 1-6 months, why this wide rage? and that you do not lose all hair, all original hair?
