My delivery was 3 months back and my hair is falling out in handfuls, its honestly scary to see in the shower. Nobody warned me about this. What can I do to control it na?
The hair fall after delivery shocked me, clumps of it, and I cried thinking I was going bald. My doctor reassured me it is hormonal and temporary, which it was. Be gentle with yourself, it does settle in a few months.
Beta this hair fall is very normal after baby. I always told my daughters to oil the scalp gently with warm coconut oil and eat well. Dont tie hair too tight, treat it softly for now.
Mine fell a lot while breastfeeding and I learned to just accept it as a phase. Eating proper protein and not skipping meals helped my hair recover. Once feeding settled, the new growth came in nicely.
