Hi, How are you? Hair loss occurs very commonly after child birth, more so if you are breastfeeding your baby. The underlying cause of this hair loss can be an overactive or underactive thyroid gland. Please get your thyroid levels checked to rule out either of these. Apart from this please eat a diet rich in fruits and vegetables, avoid blow dryers, and use shampoos with natural ingredients. Take care!
