Are you on any medication? That's usually a big culprit for hair loss. If not, I'd be pushing for a blood test as you might be deficient in something.
Agreed if you’re not on medication you need to get a same day appointment at your GP surgery & ask for a full blood panel as your hormones should have returned to normal within 18 months after baby.. the fact it’s over 2 years indicates there is something else going on. Hair loss can be caused by zinc, iron , vitamin d/ b12 /b7 or even protein deficiency (hair loss specialist hairdresser here). Also say it’s affecting your mental health and they have to see you same day! Ring at 8am or whatever time your surgery opens! things like hair food etc won’t help as they’re just hair moisturisers so more for dry hair.. a great treatment for curly hair though is silicon mix off Amazon! check your shampoo is sulfate / silicon free as these can build up block hair follicles and cause hair loss. If a deficiency then easily treated if not there is other treatments that can be offered such as steroid injections into the scalp (but these don’t prevent future hair loss and are painful) xxx
@Louise only the progesterone only pill but I’ve been on that for years and been fine plus I’m really limited in options for contraception
I could have written this post myself! It's so disheartening. Mine is visible thinning but u put it down to recent weight loss
