Postpartum hair loss is noticed after pregnancy and it comes as a surprise to many new moms. But it is normal to start losing hair for many months after giving birth. This hair loss problem affects around 10% of women.
Post-partum hair loss s normally due to a general body "fatigue" after giving birth and/or the sudden change in estrogen hormones with giving birth, also gives rise to increased hair loss and this may be one of the first symptoms noticed. Many women also suffer from thyroid dysfunction after childbirth that coupled with post-pregnancy hair loss is known as post-partum thyroiditis.
