Many mothers have discovered a common problem during their communication, which is the seriousness of hair loss after giving birth. This can really cause some panic for ladies who love beauty. In fact, postpartum hair loss does not require treatment unless the hair falls out in large patches. It is just a phenomenon of physiological changes after giving birth. Generally, it will recover on its own in about half a year after giving birth. So don't believe in advertisements that claim to help hair grow, so as not to cause unnecessary losses. Let's take a look at the reasons why hair falls out after giving birth from a medical perspective: 1. Most scholars believe that during pregnancy, high concentrations of estrogen in the blood will prolong the life of growing hair follicles. Therefore, when the circulating estrogen drops sharply after delivery, a large number of growing hair follicles will enter the resting phase and cause a large amount of hair loss. According to reports, the proportion of such resting hair follicles can be as high as 65%, which means that in severe cases, the hair loss can reach about 2/3. 2. Another explanation is that women will experience a wave of telogen hair loss due to stress in the early stages of pregnancy, followed by more growing follicles in the middle and late stages of pregnancy. After giving birth, a higher proportion of hair follicles enter the telogen phase, resulting in hair loss. In addition, factors such as stress, bleeding and endocrine changes caused by childbirth may cause more growing hair follicles to enter a resting state, resulting in telogen baldness. 3. If there is protein deficiency, essential fat deficiency or iron deficiency anemia during pregnancy, hair loss will occur. In addition, non-pregnant women may also experience hair loss after stopping taking birth control pills. At the same time, pregnant women should be reminded to ensure a balanced intake of nutrition during pregnancy and after delivery. For example, protein, fish, lean meat, walnuts, sesame, purple rice, etc. are all sources of nutrition needed for hair. At the same time, they should also ensure enough sleep, relax, use some mild shampoos, and try to avoid perming and dyeing their hair. |
