Is postpartum hair loss due to kidney deficiency?

Postpartum hair loss is not due to kidney deficiency, but because during childbirth, the level of hormones in a woman's body decreases. During pregnancy, the hormone levels are higher, which slows down the metabolism of the hair, and extends the lifespan of the hair, thus reducing hair loss. After childbirth, due to the decrease in estrogen levels, hair loss occurs. It is more than during pregnancy, but not too severe. Hair loss is also related to insufficient nutrition and lack of sleep after childbirth. It is recommended to ensure adequate sleep and enhance nutritional intake after giving birth.

How to treat night sweats and hair loss?

If night sweats and hair loss occur occasionally, it is mostly considered to be caused by stress, excessive pressure, or covering too many blankets. In such cases, paying more attention to rest and avoiding staying up late can be effective in managing these symptoms. If night sweats and hair loss occur frequently, it may be due to a lack of calcium or trace elements in the body. Consuming more eggs, fish, lean meat, shrimp, and fruits such as oranges, grapefruits, bananas, and apples, as well as vegetables, can greatly supplement the necessary calcium and trace elements for the body, leading to effective management of these conditions.

Is night sweats and hair loss due to kidney yin deficiency?

In Chinese medicine, night sweats are considered to be a result of an imbalance between Yin and Yang, with a deficiency in Yin Qi and an excess in Yang Qi. This deficiency in Yin leads to internal heat, which causes the leakage of body fluids, manifesting as excessive sweating during sleep. Hair loss can have many causes, including physiological hair loss, aging-related hair loss, and hereditary hair loss, so it is not necessarily due to a deficiency in kidney Yin. However, if a person experiences both night sweats and hair loss, it is possible to first consider the presence of a kidney Yin deficiency causing these symptoms.

Postpartum hair loss is related to what?

Postpartum hair loss is related to changes in hormone levels in women after childbirth. After giving birth, the level of estrogen in the body decreases, causing the hair that was in the growth phase before childbirth to enter the resting phase, and it will begin to fall out after a certain period. Generally, hair loss starts three to five months postpartum and gradually becomes a concern. Additionally, psychological factors can also cause hair loss. For example, mothers may experience mental stress and constant worry, which can affect the quality or quantity of hair. Nutritional deficiencies can also lead to insufficient nourishment for the hair, causing hair loss.
