Hair Loss
Question: I recently had a baby; prior to delivery, my hair was thick and bouncy. Now I’ve lost all that bounce and more. My hair is thin, and I’ve lost quite a lot from the front. I now wear bangs to cover that hair loss. Any suggestions?
Answer: Hormonal surges during pregnancy help everything grow (the baby, your hair, your nails), which explains your full mane before delivery. However, hormone levels drop after childbirth, and many women experience temporary hair shedding. The problem is that hair takes time to grow back, so six months to a year may pass before you feel like your hair is back to normal. In the meantime, consult your doctor (especially if you’re breast-feeding) about using Rogaine, which will help your hair grow back faster.
