Nowadays, hair loss has become the norm for people. Especially for people under immense pressure, their hair loss is particularly severe, which is not good and should be taken seriously. Pregnant women have a special constitution, and they may also experience hair loss during pregnancy. So, what causes hair loss during pregnancy for pregnant women?
Pregnancy is actually a process of great consumption for pregnant women, as both their own health and the growth of the fetus require a large amount of nutritional supplements. If pregnant women have a monotonous diet during pregnancy and do not supplement their nutrition in a timely manner, they will not be able to meet their own and the fetus's nutritional needs, which can lead to malnutrition and affect hair growth and metabolism, resulting in increased hair loss in pregnant women.
Secondly, during pregnancy, pregnant women may experience anxiety and tension, leading to dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system and the nerves that control hair growth. In addition, reduced blood supply to the brain during pregnancy can exacerbate hair loss in pregnant women. If pregnant women have poor sleep during pregnancy, it can also cause them to lose hair, which is not conducive to their physical health.
However, during pregnancy, the level of estrogen in the body of pregnant women increases, which slows down their hair loss rate. But after giving birth, pregnant women's hormones will return to normal, which leads to a large amount of hair loss after delivery. So pregnant women should be mentally prepared for hair loss during pregnancy and after delivery. If a pregnant woman has severe hair loss, she can go to the hospital for a check-up.
