I just had a baby 5 months ago, is it possible for my hair to fall out from that? It seems to be growing back in the front so I don't think it's perminate, but it is falling out so fast.

When you are pregnant, your normal rate of shedding (up to 200 hairs a day) drops to something like 25-50 hairs a day, and your hair gets thicker. After pregnancy and breastfeeding etc, you shed the hairs which you would normally have shed if you hadn't been pregnant, and since it happens in quite a short time frame, it can look like it's never going to end. It's pretty scary, but it's normal, you body is just catching up to where it would have been normally.

you could be having one of the condition called telogen effluvium. You can search this up in medline and see there treatment. The typical describtion is that it can block the shower drain and when you comb there is alot stuck in the comb.... People however do not notice it, your hair does not look thin to other people, only you knows.

Hey don't panic.....your body is going through all kinds of changes...but call your doctor and have them run a thyroid test on you....sometimes if that gland is not working properly it affects your hair...best of luck stay cool! So happy you are a new MOM>.It's the best title in the world!
