I had a friend who lost a lot of hair after her pregnancy. Her doctor told her it was because while you are pregnant, you grow more hair and then when you are no longer pregnant, you lose it again. She eventually stopped losing within a few months.

It's not that you grow more during pregnancy. You stop losing hair during pregnancy-the hormones of pregnancy stop the normal hair loss that you experience every day.
When those hormones go away, all the hair that you would have lost without them falls out all at once. It makes it appear that you are going bald.

It's been about 6 months now. I heard that it could be a thyroid problem. That seems a bit extream though. But I lost hair during my pregnancy too. This wasn't the case prepregnancy. At this rate I'll be bald before the new year.

I dont think it will last forever. I had my baby 4 months ago and have quite a lot of hair loss. I am finding hair everywhere at the moment.
