Much like the fabled pregnancy glow, many women attest to having fuller and thicker hair while they\u2019re expecting. But a few months into motherhood, they find themselves trading in their luscious pregnancy locks for thinning hair and excessive shedding. If you can relate, you\u2019re most likely experiencing <\/span>postpartum hair loss<\/span>. For the most part, it\u2019s due to changes in your hormones post-pregnancy, and <\/span>not <\/span><\/i>from the stress of caring for your newborn. So don\u2019t panic just yet! We break down what\u2019s actually happening with your hair, what you can do about it, and the <\/span>best shampoos for<\/span> coping with <\/span>postpartum hair loss <\/span>in Malaysia<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hormones, to put it simply.<\/span><\/p>\n

When you\u2019re expecting, your body produces an excess of hormones to support the <\/span>development of your baby<\/span><\/a>. But one in particular \u2013 estrogen \u2013 also happens to keep your <\/span>hair<\/span><\/a> from falling out. This is why your crowning glory appears thicker during your pregnancy.<\/span><\/p>\n

But all good things must come to an end. When your baby arrives and estrogen levels drop, so do the extra hairs. The drastic plunge causes hair to fall out in much bigger amounts than it normally does. This phenomenon is scientifically known as telogen effluvium, or in the parenting realm, postpartum hair loss.<\/span><\/p>\n

How Long Does <\/span>Postpartum Hair Loss<\/span> Last?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Fortunately, <\/span>postpartum hair loss<\/span> is temporary. It usually peaks around four months after the birth of your baby. By the time your child blows out the candles<\/a> on their first birthday cake<\/a>, hair growth is typically restored.<\/span><\/p>\n

Does Hair Grow Back After <\/span>Postpartum Hair Loss<\/span>?<\/span><\/h2>\n

It should. But like we said, you\u2019ll need to give your hair some time to return to its pre-pregnancy state. If it doesn\u2019t regain its fullness after a year, you may want to consult a dermatologist. There may be another cause to your hair loss, and an accurate diagnosis will help ensure effective treatment.<\/span><\/p>\n
