Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children3 years agoA. hair loss in babies is very common and because of many reasons.
Because of the withdrawal maternal hormone initial hairfall is there.
After birth all the hair of the baby remain in the resting phase and usually by 8 to 12 weeks of age shedding of hairs is there .
Hairs will grow back mostly by 3-7 months but a proper quality hair will be there by around 2 years of age.
Cradlecap is also a cause for frequent shedding of hairs. along with traction alopecia because of continuous pressure on head in lying position. to resolve the problem of cradle cap you can apply flutivate e cream over the scalp for ojne week and then discontinue but if the problem persists then you should consult your doctor for proper treatment.
Sai Prasanthi R LMom of a 11 yr 6 m old boy3 years agoA. Hello dear parent! Baby’s skin and hair texture keeps changing due to genetic factors. Regularly apply coconut oil or almond oil to your child’s hair. Include all food groups in your child’s diet that is staple in your family. If you are still concerned better consult your doctor for further advice. Good luck and take care.
