Zinco para Telogen Effluvium
F Efeito A pesquisa indica que é pouco provável que seja eficaz para esta utilização.Baseado em 29 estudos (3 RCTs) com 30,246 participantes no total. Os resultados são variados entre os estudos.
Conclusão
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
