What to do if your hair falls out after giving birth

The severe hair loss after giving birth is mainly closely related to the hormone level in women's bodies. Generally, the body's hormone level naturally decreases after giving birth, which accelerates the loss and amount of hair. In fact, this is a normal physiological phenomenon. Mothers should not panic too much. Maintaining a good mood, getting enough sleep, and sufficient nutrition can all help alleviate hair loss. At the same time, mothers who have experienced hair loss after giving birth are reminded that it is also crucial to choose the right toiletries for themselves.

According to Chinese medicine, there are two reasons for hair loss: one is blood heat and dry wind, which occurs when blood heat prevails and damages the yin blood. The blood tiger creates wind, which further damages the yin blood. The yin blood cannot reach the top of the head to nourish the hair roots, causing the hair roots to dry up or the hair to become weak and fall out. The second is spleen and stomach dampness and heat, which causes the spleen to be weak and unable to transport and transform hair, and excessive consumption of fatty and sweet foods, which damages the stomach and spleen, causing dampness and heat to rise to the top of the head and erode the hair roots. The hair roots are gradually corroded, and the hair becomes sticky and falls out.

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that "humans are born with the energy of heaven and earth" and "humans and nature are one whole", so changes in nature are closely related to humans. The climate is dry in autumn and winter, and the leaves wither and fall, and people also lose their hair. This is a natural physiological phenomenon. The reason is that it is drier in autumn and winter, water cannot be replenished in time, and the secretion of sebaceous glands decreases, causing hair to dry and fall out. Therefore, some hair will fall out when you comb your hair every day, which is also a normal phenomenon.

However, abnormal hair loss is because hair growth is affected. Hair growth requires nutrition, and nutrition is transported by blood. If a person is sick for a long time, weak, lacks blood, and has poor nutrition, the hair will fall out prematurely due to lack of nutrition and poor growth. Such people are prone to hair loss, and lose a lot of hair. Some people's hair falls out sparsely after a serious illness. This may be the reason.

Warm reminder: For new mothers and expectant mothers who have just given birth, they must reduce the chances of dyeing and perming their hair, because many products on the market not only have a great impact on the hair, but are also harmful to the fetus. If the hair loss time exceeds half a year and the amount increases day by day, you must go to a regular hospital for regular examination and treatment.
