Postpartum Shedding
Investigated.
The hormonal drop after birth sends every hair your body 'held' during pregnancy into shedding at once. It is normal — but it can be softened, shortened, and fully recovered.
What this usually looks like
- Dramatic shedding a few months postpartum
- Regrowth at the hairline (short 'baby hairs')
- Fatigue, sleep deprivation, and reduced appetite
- Breastfeeding or recently weaned
The Open Question
Recognizing it is not the same as proving it.
Postpartum Shedding looks like several other suspects from the outside — which is why so many people treat the wrong one for years. Your Hair Investigation™ settles it, in private, with Dr. Leola.
