“Doctor, baal gir rahe hain… har jagah baal hi baal!”
This is one of the most common concerns new moms bring to us at Maternite Hospital — and honestly, we get it. You’ve just had a baby. You’re exhausted. Your body is healing. And now suddenly, your hair is falling out in bunches.
Let us tell you the truth: You’re not alone, and it’s completely normal.
During pregnancy, your estrogen levels are high — which keeps your hair thick, shiny, and growing beautifully. Once you deliver, those hormone levels drop. That’s when all the hair that was “on hold” starts to fall — usually around 2–3 months after delivery.
This is called postpartum hair shedding — not permanent hair loss.
Most women notice hair fall between 8–12 weeks after delivery. You might see hair on your pillow, bathroom floor, or stuck in your comb. It can feel scary — but it’s temporary.
In most cases, the hair fall reduces by 6 months, and your normal growth pattern returns by 9–12 months.
While you can’t stop it completely, you can take care of your scalp and body to reduce stress on your hair.
Hair needs protein, iron, calcium, and zinc.
Include:
At Maternite, our nutritionist for women in Jaipur helps new moms plan meals that support both recovery and hair health.
Choose gentle, chemical-free shampoos. Avoid strong hair oils or styling products during this period.
Massage your scalp lightly with warm coconut or almond oil once or twice a week.
No need to rush into expensive hair spas or medicines. Give your body time.
When to See a Doctor
If you notice:
Then it’s good to speak with a specialist. We often refer moms to our dermatology partner or coordinate care with our female physiotherapist in Jaipur if stress or posture is also contributing to overall hair and body fatigue.
Hair loss after pregnancy feels unfair — especially when you’re already running low on sleep, energy, and patience.
But this too passes. Your body is just resetting. Be gentle with yourself. Tie your hair loose. Eat warm, nourishing food. And talk to someone if it worries you too much.
We’re not just your maternity doctor in Jaipur — we’re here for all the aftercare too.
