Anti-inflammatory fatty acids that may support hair density in telogen effluvium.
Omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA) modulate inflammatory pathways by competing with arachidonic acid for cyclooxygenase enzymes, reducing pro-inflammatory prostaglandins and leukotrienes. This anti-inflammatory effect may help resolve the chronic low-grade inflammation associated with hair follicle miniaturization and telogen effluvium.
