⁉️ CAUSES OF POSTPARTUM HAIR LOSS
The phenomenon of postpartum hair loss is quite common, according to statistics, up to 30-40% of women experience this condition.
- Excessive hair loss in women is mainly related to female hormonal changes. Normally, every few years, the entire hair is changed once and the hair change is carried out in stages, divided by areas, so it is not easy for us to recognize. The rate of hair loss in women is related to the amount of estrogen in the body. When the amount of estrogen is high, the rate of hair loss will slow down, the hair will be thicker, when the amount of estrogen is low, the hair replacement rate will increase quickly, hair loss will cause thinning hair, baldness in women.
- During lactation, the body secretes prolactin hormone, which makes breast milk abundant, stimulates milk secretion. Prolactin is an estrogen inhibitor, which causes more hair loss.
During pregnancy, nutrients are concentrated for the fetus and after birth, it continues to focus on milk to feed the baby. This makes the mother's body vulnerable to nutritional deficiencies if the supply is not adequate, blood circulation to the hair follicles is interrupted, causing the hair to be damaged and fall out if it is not nourished.
- Postpartum physiological changes, plus pressure from raising children, family, work, etc. causing stress, prolonged stress is also the culprit that causes hair to be damaged and causes a lot of hair loss after giving birth.
Many women worry that postpartum hair loss will grow back? The answer is yes. However, whether hair grows fast, healthy and beautiful depends a lot on your lifestyle and hair care.
