Loosing my hair!

[emlouba]

Hello!

I am aware it's normal to loose hair after pregnancy, but please can someone tell me when this stops? 😅
I'm loosing so much hair, I literally just have to touch end of ponytail and there's loads there coming out! I wash my hair and clumps of it come out then I brush it after and more clumps come out? It's all over the house!
At this point I'm too scared to wash my hair 😩 when does this come to an end does anyone know? It started I would say around 3 weeks ago and my baby is nearly 5 months old!

Thanks xx

That sounds pretty excessive. After my first DD was born I had similar and eventually went to the GP. She did bloods and my ferritin was rock bottom. Prescription iron tablets really helped. I'd recommend a trip to the go to get to the bottom of it before it gets worse. I thought a lot of things were just normal post natal things but it turns out my iron levels were to blame for a fair few issues I was having.

@HouseFullOfChaos oh really! Thank you! I will book a doctors appointment- I know thought was pretty excessive too, I hope I don't loose too much more, my hair already feels so thin! Xxx

Are you LOSING your hair .or wearing it LOOSE?

@eddiemairswife haha sorry for my silly spelling mistake!!!

Biotin and iron supplements asap

Ask for a full blood test including iron and thyroid but sadly this is common PP its awful when it happens. I can reassure you that it will grow back though.
