Postpartum hair loss starts from when?

Postpartum hair loss generally occurs around two to three months after childbirth and usually stops on its own within six months, typically not lasting longer than one year. Postpartum hair loss is actually a resting state of the scalp for the mother, and is a physiological phenomenon. There are various reasons for postpartum hair loss, such as insufficient sleep during pregnancy, significant blood loss and anemia during childbirth, and inadequate nutrition during pregnancy. Additionally, hormonal changes during the postpartum period and breastfeeding can also cause hair loss. It is important not to be overly anxious about postpartum hair loss.

Hair loss caused by kidney yin deficiency can be regenerated. Kidney yin deficiency mainly refers to the insufficient manifestation of kidney fluids, and so it can be treated by nourishing the kidney yin.

Can poor kidney function cause hair loss?

Poor kidney function is actually not significantly related to hair loss. Even in severe cases of kidney failure or patients with uremia, most still retain their hair. Not all patients with uremia experience hair loss. Thus, there is not much of a connection between kidney function and hair growth. If a patient is experiencing hair loss, it could be due to issues with the skin or scalp itself, such as male pattern baldness which is related to an excess of androgens in the hair follicles, or factors like allergies or fungal infections could also cause hair loss.

Can kidney deficiency hair loss be treated by simply nourishing the kidneys?

Kidney deficiency type hair loss is caused by kidney deficiency and a shortage of kidney essence, leading to hair loss. It can also be caused by excessive physical exhaustion, mental stress, and a deficiency of trace elements within the body. Diet adjustments can be made to address this, such as supplementing with collagen-rich foods including black sesame, black beans, wood ear mushrooms, and goji berries. It's important to maintain a pleasant mood, relax, eat less spicy and stimulating foods, ensure adequate sleep, avoid overexertion and staying up late, and refrain from smoking and drinking alcohol.
