PP hair loss

Please help. Baby is 6 months and my hair is falling out in clumps. I'm BF. Is there anything I can take? I'm also spotty AF - I've never had spots like this before.

My scalp at times is quite tender. I'm taking a BF supplement that has biotin in. Is there anything else? I thought BF was supposed to delay the hair shedding Sad my hair is naturally very fine and not a lot of it so I can't afford to lose much more.

I wash everyday because it gets so greasy, I use a good conditioner and a tangle teaser. Its really getting me down x

Anyone any words of wisdom? Or magic potion?

Not massively helpful but i just rode it out, it fell out massively for about 6 weeks (seemed like forever at the time) and then it stopped. Im 8 months pp now and its starting to grow back. It really got me down too op so i understand :(

My baby is 7 months- until 5 months it was falling out in clumps in the shower. I used to avoid washing my hair it was so upsetting.

It did settle though.

This is my third baby and I didn't have any notice loss with the first two.
