Pregnancy and hair loss

September 11, 2008

Pregnancy initiates several physical changes in women’s body. Thus, any change in hair texture and growth while pregnancy is not an exception. Actually it is one of the changes that commonly occur during pregnancy. So don’t get worried if you have pregnancy and hair loss together. Most of the women experience increased thickness and luxuriant growth; while some other find that they have lost their hair texture and gain lots of limp and dull hair. The factors that are present behind such changes are as follows:

Increased Estrogen:
The reason behind phenomena of hair thickness and fast growth during pregnancy is increment in the amount of estrogen. The rate of your body metabolism also increases due to the increment in estrogen, which provides enough nutrients to your growing belly as well as scalp. Hence, hair is affected easily with the increment of estrogen.

Texture Changes:
Some time due to the hormonal changes during pregnancy, the texture of hair also gets changed from curly to straight, limp to full, etc. Hormones get to cortex that is responsible for hair elasticity and curl. Hence, due to the hormonal increment and decrement, cortex gets affected and thus, hair texture has changes.

Try to work with the changes of your hair:
Instead of getting worried about your hair’s changes, try to learn solutions. If you go to the salon every week just to have sessions for the treatment of such hair problems like curling, limps, dryness, dullness etc, it would be expensive for you. In addition, it also consumes lots of your time and attention. As these problems are created due to your pregnancy, they may not be solved by salon treatment easily. So, it is better to look for other worthy solutions like hair accessories in order to manage you hair and dress them well. You can also buy some products that can help you out from dry and dull hair.

Treat Yourself:
You can also look for soothing scalp massage in order to treat your scalp. You can do scalp massage at home with few fine products or you can prefer any salon for the same purpose. Hair health is directly affected from eating habit. Hence, during pregnancy when eating habits changes daily, hair health suffers a lot.
Thus, from the above details you can know easily that pregnancy and hair loss are two things that can happen together because of the changes in one’s eating habits and number of physical changes.
