How soon after giving birth does hair loss occur? What about birth control pills?

Posted by admin
Maria asked:


I have a three month old and my hair has just started to fall out. I started taking Kariva about 3 weeks ago. I am not sure if my hair loss is due to the hormone changes from giving birth, or if it is from the birth control pill. If it is the birth control then I will discontinue to take it.
