I have been losing hair lately at such a rate that my previous feelings - all women in my family need wigs eventually and I know some day I will, too - have changed to actually collecting names and addresses of local wig shops. The hair loss is HIDEOUS... I hate it. My hair is such a pretty color but it is so damn thin and ratty it just isn't right. I am thinking it has been so bad since being pregnant because of the progesterone - progesterone acts like an androgen, hence the lovely zits and all.


I lost hair in the first trimester with my son and then it seemed to stop - I am hoping that happens this time, too. And then yeah, of course there is the lovely dumping of hair about 4 months post partum which sucks. This time around my hair is so much noticably thinner already that I am dreading that extra hard.

The shedding seems to be lessening somewhat but maybe it's just because I am running out of hair.
