In this study, we have presented consequences of nutritive deficit on hair folliclea in dermatological patients and patients who were wounded and/or operated, and without manifest signs of hair loss. Serum iron, saturation of iron, Hb, hematocrit and protein metabolism, were not in all cases, complementary with prescription of trichogram. Telogen efluvium has been found even at cases with normal values of those parameters as consequence of high sensitive hair follicle to minimal deficits. At group of patients who were wounded and/or operated it was found higher percent of dystrophic and mixed effluvium as consequence of damage to hair follicle. Percent of telogen efluvium is the same at the both groups of patients. Those damages are reversible given normal diet and removal of all physical and psychological stress.
