What are the reasons for hair fall after delivery?

Generally, the hair cycle is divided into two phases, called anagen (growth period) and telogen (resting period). Most of the hair grows in the growing phase and 10% remaining in resting phase falls. In the months of pregnancy, the drastic rise in the estrogen level prolongs the growing phase. This leads to less hair shedding increasing the volume of your hair. After delivery, the estrogen level comes back to normal and the resting phase increases the hair fall. You can regain the normal hair after 6 to 12 months after the delivery.
