Hair Loss During Pregnancy

<h1>Hair Loss During Pregnancy</h1>Author: <a title="Parsa Mohebi" href="http://www.articlesbase.com/authors/parsa-mohebi/53612.htm">Parsa Mohebi</a> I have been asked this women hair loss question over and over about alopecia areata hair loss disorder during pregnancy in our <a href="http://ushairrestoration.com/" title="Hair Transplant Los Angeles">Los Angeles hair transplant</a> and <a href="http://ushairtransplant.com/" title="Orange County hair transplant">Orange County hair restoration clinics</a>. Here is another hair loss question on alopecia areata during pregnancy. One of my patients from our Los Angeles – Orange County hair transplant said that she was diagnosed with Alopecia and lost pretty much all of her hair during pregnancy. Her son is now 5 months old and her hair has grown back. All but one spot. She said that she could hide the balding spot, but I would love for one day not to have to hide it. This patient has experienced extensive alopecia areata, but she got her hair back after only a few months. This is a pretty good recovery for a condition that could have lead to a much worse outcome. My suggestion to this patient was to be patient and to hang in there. It is very likely that this patient can grow the rest of her hair back without any hair loss treatment. If her hair loss was due to alopecia areata, a <a href="http://ushairtransplant.com/hair-transplant.php" title="Hair transplant">hair transplant</a> cannot help her balding condition. However, she would need to be seen and examined by a hair specialist to confirm the diagnosis of her hair loss condition properly. Women after pregnancy may lose hair due to a condition called telogen effluvium that should not be mistaken with other hair loss disorders. Telogen effluvium is a common cause of hair loss in women after delivery of a baby or some other conditions.
