For most women, everything tends to work in favor of hair health during pregnancy. increased estrogen levels can lead to up to 95% of hair entering anagen or growth phase (the normal amount is around 85%). This can result in some of the thickest and most luxuriant hair woman can ever have in my head.
extra estrogen during pregnancy can increase your metabolism to the extent that more nutrients than is normally available for your entire body, including hair. This hormonal increase tends to quake hair follicles in the production of more than normal. Therefore, a higher percentage of hairs that are in the stage of growth means that the normal 100-150 hairs a day are not shed.
and many women are particularly conscientious about personal health for the time - that they get all the nutrients they need, taking all the supplements they think are important, and getting plenty of rest as well. All these factors can contribute to providing the healthiest environment for all body systems, their weight, including the hair.
Of course, there are those women who experience something different, and while she was pregnant. Their hair can change the structure and become limp and lifeless mop. Again, hormones are the culprits as they affect the entire hair fiber, it changes from one species to another: from curly to limp or in some cases, the limp or straight or curly
.One can sometimes examine your hair to determine if the body gets all the nutrients needed during pregnancy. The hair that appears to be damaged, or that is starting to shed, it can be a signal of some kind of deficiency that should be brought to the attention of a doctor.
But all those women who have found that pregnancy has a very positive effect on the hair can eventually get the opposite effect in some time after pregnancy. As the body reduces the previously elevated levels of hormones, all the wonderful new growth May be lost. Just as it is higher than normal percentage of the growth phase before the pregnancy ended, can not be higher than normal hair over a long holiday, or telogen phase. As much as 35% of the head hair can be in a resting phase following pregnancy. There can be anxiety producing amount of the spill until it happens, and it can go on for quite some time. In some cases it may take as long as a year.
Although it is quite normal part of pregnancy experience, this can prove stressful for some mothers, even when they know it. Unfortunately, high levels of stress can also contribute to hair loss. Although it is May take some time (several years) the hair completely back to normal levels, it will almost certainly do.
There are other conditions associated with reproduction that can contribute to abnormal hair growth / loss occurrences. Any termination of pregnancy has the potential to cause excess hair loss, as the body corrects the previously high levels of hormones. This is only an indicator of changes in the amount of estrogen you have, and your body reacts to this change.
To do everything you can, be sure to take the necessary precautions for the health of your hair, as well as for overall health - during and after pregnancy. Make sure your doctor monitors your hormone levels. Eat foods that are in the best interest of your overall health, and take vitamins and minerals to make sure you're getting enough. Be gentle in handling your hair. I avoid hairstyles that pull hair, or that are too tight.
and not overly concerned about the unusual effects that pregnancy has on your hair. Your body knows what is his and it will almost always correct itself.
