My baby is 3 months now and my hair is falling like crazy, full clumps while combing. Itna pehle kabhi nahi hua. Is this a normal post pregnancy thing? Kinda worried.
I faced terrible hair fall around 4 months after delivery while breastfeeding. I just continued my prenatal vitamins as advised by my doc, and by the 9th month, my hair started growing back normally.
Currently in my 3rd trimester enjoying my thick hair phase, but I know it's going to shed like crazy soon, haha! It's just postpartum hormones doing their thing, so I'm not stressing.
It's just your body balancing out the hormones! 😊 Don't stress, it mostly stops after a few months. Just eat well, do thoda head massage, and it will be fine!
Actually, my doctor told me that pregnancy hormones keep your hair in a growing phase, so you barely lose any. Post-delivery, estrogen levels drop and all that hair sheds together. It is completely normal and temporary.
I am planning my pregnancy now and honestly, reading about postpartum hair loss scares me so much! Is there any way to prevent it or does it happen to everyone?
