POST PARTUM HAIR LOSS WHAT IS IT AND HOW TO STOP IT WITH ZENAGEN
Post partum hair loss is the term used to describe the hair thinning experienced by many women after giving birth. Before a woman becomes pregnant, around 90 percent of her hair follicles are in the growing phase which is also known as anagen. The remaining 10 percent are in telogen or the resting stage. This phase lasts for around 3 months before the hair falls out usually at a rate of around 100 strands a day. During pregnancy, high levels of the hormone estrogen prolong the hair growing phase which results in the hair becoming longer. Since this hormone also reduces the number of hairs entering the resting stage and being shed, the tresses are also noticeably thicker. After delivery, estrogen levels in the body drop and a larger than usual number of hairs enter their resting stage before falling out. This post partum shedding typically begins to become conspicuous three months after giving birth though mothers who were breastfeeding their babies exclusively may notice it at around six months when they begin weaning them. Though many women lose hair from around their hairline, a good number notice thinning all over the head. This hair loss after baby can range from shedding several strands while shampooing to losing large clumps of around 500 strands while brushing the hair. The good news about post partum shedding is that it is not a permanent condition. Most women regain their full pre-pregnancy hair once their hormones stabilize which is usually by the time their baby is six months to one year old. There is new tool for post partum hair loss and it is Zenagen Evolve treatment.
