What is the medical term for "shock fall out"?

FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions - NHI
The medical term for the very onerous sounding "shock fall out" is "effluvium" which literally means shedding. It is usually the miniaturized hair i.e. the hair that is at the end of its lifespan due to genetic balding that is most likely to be shed. Less likely, some healthy hair will be shed, but this should regrow. Rarely, but sometimes, we notice some shedding of hair from a prior transplant when transplants are spaced less than one year apart. However, this hair grows back completely.
