EP 37 \ The Postpartum Thing No One Warns You About: The Sad Reality Of Postpartum Hair Loss

When you're pregnant, your hair likely thickened into a beautiful mane of hair so glossy and beautiful it might have seemed too good to be true.  Sadly, it was.  There are hormonal changes during pregnancy that explain why hair thickens the way it does.....and those same hormones also explain the sad reality known as postpartum hair loss.  Many women have no idea it's coming and it can be pretty scary, so today we're going to discuss what it is and what, if anything, you can do about it. (Taken from my HouseMidwife article on the same topic from several years back.)
