Yes it is! You may have noticed that your hair got really thick during pregnancy. Now it's rapidly returning back to normal. Just one more of those things caused by hormone changes. Don't worry!

Yes, postpartum hair loss is very common, but not permanent. It usually lasts 3 to 6 months after giving birth. Women usually do not shed hair during the time they are pregnant because of the different hormone levels in their bodies. So after having the baby you lose all the hair you would have lost over the past 9 months. No need to worry, I don't know any women who didn't lose hair after being pregnant.

Yes, it is normal. Between hormones which wreak havoc on your body, and the fact that you were supplying nutrients for both your and your baby, it's a surprise all women aren't bald after giving birth. (Although some just want to pull it out themselves during 3:00 feedings!) Biotin will help to stimulate new hair growth more quickly. It helps your body process proteins more efficiently.

It happened to me too and I freaked out, but it only lasted for a month or so, and then it was back 2 normal. Don't worry.

Yes. The hormones in your body are reacting to having the baby. It should slow down soon.
