Why breast feeding cause hair loss?

After you have a child and are feeding your body is sending all of the good nutrients to the child, so because there is so much demand on your body it cuts back on other not so important things to save nutrients and the first thing your body deems as unnessary is your hair unfortunately. Don't worry but it is short lived and grows back just as quickly as you lose it.Why breast feeding cause hair loss?
In addition to the previous answer I will add, that while breastfeeding your body uses MUCH of your own nutrition to produce breastmilk for your child, and WILL tkae away from you to produce for your child.





Make sure you are eating enough (And not going on a diet), and still taking vitamins (Even the prenatal ones).





Save the diet and 'getting back into shape' till you are back to only eating for one.Why breast feeding cause hair loss?
Breastfeeding doesn't cause hair loss, but after pregnancy women experience hair loss. This is because while you are pregnant you don't shed as much hair as you would if you weren't. So after you have your baby you pretty much make up for the last 9 months.
Breastfeeding doesn't actaully cause hair loss. this happens because, during pregnancy, all the hairs enter something known as a resting phase, during which the hair neither grows nor is shed. Whe the baby has been delivered, the hairs that should have been shed start to fall, along with any others that may have entered the resting phase at the time they should have been shed. This gives the impression that you're losing all your hair, when in reality, you're just shedding those that you would have shed before you became pregnant.
