Im in my 5th month and suddenly my scalp has gone soo flaky and itchy, never had this before. Is it a hormone thing or just winter? Thoda irritating honestly.
I have read that hormonal changes can make the scalp very dry or oily, which might cause dandruff. It's so tricky trying to keep up with all these changes. I hope it gets better for you.
Actually yes, my scalp became super dry in the second trimester yaar. I thought it was weather but my gynac said it's just pregnancy hormones acting up. Try using a chemical-free anti-dandruff shampoo.
Oh god, yes! As if morning sickness and back pain weren't enough, pregnancy gifted me a snowy scalp too, haha. I literally had no energy to wash my hair, so I just wore a bun all day.
It is totally normal because of all the hormone surges in your body. I used to apply mild lukewarm coconut oil with a few drops of lemon before washing. My normal delivery was smooth and the hair issues also settled down slowly after birth.
Yes, skin changes like dandruff are very common due to hormonal shifts. Just make sure whatever anti-dandruff shampoo you use is safe for pregnancy. Do check the ingredients or ask your doctor to be absolutely safe.
Yes it can! Hormones are playing their own games right now. Try applying a curd mask on your hair for 15 mins before bath, it works like magic. Keep smiling and take care!
Yes, postpartum and pregnancy hormones do crazy things to your skin and hair. I got severe dry scalp after my C-section delivery. Just use a very mild shampoo and avoid hot water for washing hair, it helps soothe it.
