A. After delivery hair fall is a common problem. Do not treat your hairs with harsh chemical rich products as they may make the situation worse. I suggest you try mamaearth rosemary hair oil and mamaearth rosemary hair shampoo. Apply the oil before going to sleep, leave it overnight and wash in the morning with shampoo. This will help in nourishing the hair follicles and strengthen the roots of hairs which will be helpful in gaining hair volume naturally. Give it a try.

A. yes you can take iron folic acid calcium also. hair loss is very common during pregnancy and while breastfeeding also because of hormonal changes it will take quite some time for getting back the hair better to take supplements of iron calcium
