Telogen Effluvium and Minoxidil, how long does shedding usually last?

It can take up to 6 months to see results with Minoxidil.  I suggest a consultation with a cosmetic dermatologist with experience in hair restoration and maintenance. Some great options for hair restoration and maintenance are prp injections which can stimulate hair growth. Hope this helps.

Starting minoxidil therapy (in any type of hair loss condition) can lead to a month or two of increased shedding. Telogen effluvium usually lasts 6-12 months and the use of Minoxidil may shorten the time until resolution.

Telogen Effluviums usually run their course which can be a few years. See a doctor and work with that doctor to manage the problem
