I had a baby 3 months ago and im still losing large amounts of hair is this normal and if so when wi

Yes, it's very normal. The reason being that during pregnancy, your body stops shedding it's hair. Normally we shed hair every day, but during pregnancy this process slows down or stops completely. After you have the baby it's like your body makes up for lost time and begins to shed all of the hair it didn't during the pregnancy. Give it another month or so and if it continues or your hair starts to look thin, ask your Dr. for a blood test to make sure there is not problem with your thyroid. Good Luck, and Congrats on the baby!

Yeah I lost loads of hair after I had my baby, I had it cut quite shortish %26amp; it seems to have helped. It's now back to it's original lenght %26amp; I've not lost any hair since!

after I had my last baby I lost hair but it was because the pregnancy induced an underactive thyroid

Yes this is very normal. While pregnant, your estrogen ( a hormone) is increased, allowing your hair to grow fast and thick, giving your hair a healthy, shinny look. Increased estrogen also revs up your metabolism, which brings nutrients to your scalp as well as to your growing belly. But after the birth of your baby, your hormones are returning back to normal levels which increases shedding for about 3-6 months. Unfortunately, there is nothing you can do about this. If you see that your hair is thinning, try using a thickening shampoo and deep condition your hair. After my second child I experienced tremendous hair loss but my hair never thinned or got shorter. All you can do is treat it the best way possible and remember it's only temporary.

It's normal to lose your 'pregnancy' hair after birth. When you're pregnant, you're on those great prenatal vitamins and there's increased circulation going on around your body due to the increase in blood volume. Once you lose the blood and you're off the prenatal vitamins your hair starts to fall out. You can restart the prenatals to help soothe the hair falling out but it will stop eventually.

Get a blood test to make sure everything is okay (it probably is). Hair loss after pregnancy is normal. My doctor prescribed me zinc, vitamin B and iron pills - all can be bought over the counter.

Your not really losing hair excessivly. When you are pregnant don't lose the 100's of hairs peope lose on a daily basis which is why ladies hair gets thicker and fuller when they are pregnant. Its all hormonal. Once you have had your baby and your hormones go back to some kind of normality you start losing hair again, and the extra hair you never lost during the pregnancy. It can be alarming but it should go back to normal in a few weeks!

As others have said it's totally normal and apparently worse if you had a boy due to the male hormones!!



I started shedding what seemed like vast amounts of hair a few weeks after having my son and it only really stopped a couple of weeks ago (he's almost 10 months now.



Try not to worry!!

Oh my gosh I thought something was wrong with me. Here you girls are saying the same thing that is happening to me. I had my son 4 months ago and every time I brush my hair HUGE clumps come out, I thought I had cancer or something. Thanks for the good question.
