Quick answer
The Deitleman Hair Loss Panel is a laboratory panel that examines common physical contributors to hair thinning and shedding, including nutrient status, thyroid function, and hormone balance. It may be ordered when someone wants a structured lab overview before or alongside a provider evaluation. Because panel composition varies by laboratory, the exact marker list on the order should be reviewed.
What this test measures
Hair growth follows a cycle that can be disrupted by many factors, including nutritional deficiencies, thyroid dysfunction, hormonal shifts, and inflammation. Blood testing can help identify some of these contributors, although it does not evaluate all causes of hair loss. Results are usually combined with a provider history and physical examination.
The panel commonly draws a blood sample from a vein and may include a complete blood count, ferritin, iron and total iron-binding capacity, thyroid markers, and selected hormones such as DHT, total testosterone, or DHEA sulfate. Vitamin D, vitamin B12, zinc, and an autoimmune screening marker may also be included depending on the laboratory.
People often order this type of panel when they notice diffuse thinning, increased shedding, or changes in hair texture and want to review possible lab-related factors. It is not a diagnosis on its own. A qualified healthcare provider should interpret the findings and determine whether additional evaluation is needed.
