Bengaluru, 22nd of February, 2025 : After pregnancy, many types of changes occur in the body of women, one of them is hair fall. Normally a person loses 80 to 100 hairs per day, but after pregnancy, a woman’s hair falls four times more than others. There can be many reasons for this change, one of which is hormonal changes.
Asha Ayurveda director and gynecologist Dr. Chanchal Sharma told about this subject that in the language of science it is called postpartum telogen effluvium. These are common symptoms seen during and after pregnancy, which occurs in almost all women. When a woman is pregnant, the amount of estrogen and progesterone in her body increases much more than normal, due to which in the initial stage of pregnancy, the hair are more shiny and long, but as soon as the woman gives birth to a child, the level of estrogen in her body starts decreasing. Due to low estrogen levels, women’s hair starts falling which can be a matter of concern for them. But here you have to understand one thing that all these changes last only for a few months, then slowly your condition starts becoming normal.
