What can I do for my hair loss?

Post partum hair loss! I am 5 months post partum since having my son and my hair loss is insane! Any of y’all know of products that can help encourage growth?!? I’m so insecure about my hair since losing a lot. It’s super thin in the front where I cant hide the loss any more.

Biotin gummies from nature’s bounty. The price is right and they taste great.

Try collagen powder. You can add it to fruit juice, tea, coffee etc

Niocin or Nexxus shampoo is really good. I’ve been alternating both and have seen good results. I also take biotin.

My mom has been having this issue and she’s been using a serum made with rosemary oil. The rosemary oil helps regrow hair naturally and its working for her really well. You can buy it on Amazon

Folic acid promotes hair growth and strength, also don’t wash your hair every day, use a deep conditioner twice per week.

Nioxin. I swear by this stuff, lil pricey but def see results!

I was missing about half my hair and was thinking about getting a wig. A blood test showed I was way low in B12.
Look up B12 and hair health.
I started using liquid B12 and my hair started growing back!!!
Blood test showed I went from below the normal levels to above the normal level!!!

Get your hormones & thyroid checked, make sure this isn’t due to a medical condition first, then work on other methods, if not health related.

Take biotin and stop washing your hair daily . Do amika and coconut oil treatments. Let hair air dry until the end don’t use excessive heat

Gelatin is good for hair & nails: bone broth, Jell-O, for example.

Someone told me that when you’re pregnant your hair doesn’t release itself. Like you don’t shed unless it’s pulled out.
So once you have baby you’re shedding alll the natural shed you would’ve in your 9 months of pregnancy

Get your thyroid checked. I lost a ton of hair and found out I developed Hashimotos after baby #3

You lose a lot of hair a day. If its allot go to the doc. Could mean loan hormones

Use Nioxin shampoo and conditioner

Mine started falling out when I hit menopause

I have that problem, I take Biotin daily. My hairdresser said it could be my age(46) or from my meds. Either way it sucks.

I know you said you didn’t change your hair products but have they changed their ingredients? It could just be age. Have you considered using minoxidil if you’re concerned about it being too thin? It’s something that will just become routine going forward.

I say it’s your hormones changing and need to up your biotin intake to daily.

“Normal” doesn’t always mean normal for you.
That said, age?
Perimenopause hits around 35. Hair loss is a symptom. It could be other hormone levels. See your OBGYN too.
Biotin isn’t the only thing to take. Some women see improvement but the underlying health issue isn’t fixed. It can mask something else. Example, Vit K, Vit D work together. Vit D may be over 45 but Vit K is too low for your body. You’d need an expanded panel to check everything. That would require a specialist.
