Fazit

Moderate evidence suggests that zinc deficiency may contribute to telogen effluvium, and supplementation may help if levels are low — but routine zinc supplementation for hair shedding is not clearly supported.

  • Lower zinc levels are frequently found in telogen effluvium patients
  • Some RCTs show benefits from zinc-containing supplement combinations
  • Difficult to isolate zinc's specific effect from multi-ingredient formulas
  • Testing zinc levels and supplementing only if deficient is a reasonable approach
