Did you experience postpartum hair shedding after having your baby?

Question

Answer

Yes, at 3-4 months. And pp hair loss is not caused by epidural. It happens due to hormonal changes.

Answer

Oooohhhh did I! I'm pretty sure I had enough hair fall out to make a wig!

Answer

I can't say whether anesthesia has an effect on the post partum hair loss or not, but I don't believe it is the main cause. I have never heard that before, and I would be curious to hear from any moms who gave birth without medication to see if they experienced post partum shedding or not.

Answer

I did but it wasn’t until like 9 months pp so I wasn’t expecting it 😭

Answer

Yep around 3 months pp my hair is still falling out in friggin chunks I'm so over it lol idk how I'm not bald yet

Answer

That’s definitely from the epidural.
