Body Hair Loss from Stress After Pregnancy Years Earlier?
Hello Doctors…
My sister has been losing her hair for 2 years now, she is 22…it all started after she had her first baby…shes been stressed out since then…around 300 hairs fall out a day maybe more…she recently went to a dermatologist and they checked her iron, zinc, and thyroid…they said everything looked good…she is losing body hair or should i say pubic hair and she mentioned something about her eyelashes as well…she gets these red spots on her scalp sometimes…the dermatologist said that her losing her hair is due to the new born she had 2 years ago…is that possible?…i told her to get a second opinion, i mean they should take samples of her scalp or something right?…or could it just be the stress?…i never heard stress making you loss body hair and stuff but i dont know…she decided to get ScalpMed, but i have a feeling it’s not going to work because its not just the scalp that losing hair it’s also everywhere else…what do you think about all this? Thank you for your time.
It is virtually impossible for me to diagnose her over the internet. I think that if she is not satisfied with the one opinion, get another one. Her hair is too important to let this go and what you are describing does sound serious for her hair and psychological state of mind.
