Normally our hair follicles will spend about 2-7 years in the growth (anagen) phase. However, repeated exposure to physically or emotional stress can prematurely lead the hair follicles to shift from the growth phase to a transition (catagen) phase and then resting (telogen) phase, where hair sheds more easily. Stress can also have an indirect effect on other interconnected systems, such as hormone levels, circulation to the scalp and hair follicles, nutrient absorption, and impact the immune system, triggering other root causes that impact hair thinning
The stress hormone cortisol signals hair follicles to prematurely shift out of the hair growth phase, accelerating the time it takes for hair to shed. Over time, stress can also impact hormones and nutrient absorption needed for hair growth.
