Hair loss

Anyone else really struggling with postpartum hair loss? How long did it last? I currently just struggling with how much I am losing, it’s coming out in clumps and I’m too scared to touch it at this point.

I'm nearly 3 years in & still struggling with it 😐

I’m nearly 4 months pp and I’m the same, I’ve read it peaks at 5 months so hopefully stops soon. I’m looking into hair vitamins but I don’t think anything is going to stop it just going to have to wait for it to regrow 🥲

At 6 months pp Clumps falling out all the time from the front of my hair line 😥. It eventually stopped and started growing back, then the struggle was short hairs poking out everywhere! At 12months pp I had hair fallout all over again! Currently 14months pp and its stopped and growing all over again 😑

I am 3 years in and was really struggling with hair loss and general hair and scalp health. I tried everything- hair oils and what not. I started taking The Pharmacist Beauty's hair growth supplements 2 months ago and it has helped significantly. My hair and scalp health is a lot better. Hair is still falling but it's much much less.

Yeah, it's really annoying. I have a lot of hair so thankfully it's not thinning but there's just hair everywhere and I mean everywhere and because it's blonde you can't always see it but can constantly find it in clothes, bed, even in babies nappy which is awful! I've just started sleeping with a satin bonnet hoping that it helps somehow....

I'm 7 months pp and still losing it

For my first two, it peaked around five months and then went back to normal. I just had my third and am losing so much rn - currently nearly 4 months postpartum so 🤞🤞

Try the GP get a full blood test to determine whether it's post birth hormonal like low iron or thyroid issue, also vitamins may help slow the fall like iron, selenium, magnesium, kelp.

Yes and I had thin hair before 😭 my gp has referred me for a blood test to check hormones / iron / thyroid so maybe try the same? Ive bought some hair vitamins in the meantime as well. I also heard that having slightly cooler showers helps as it keeps the hair follicles closed but dont know if this is an old wives tale.
