As if there wasn’t enough going on during pregnancy, your normal hair growth cycle is quietly disrupted by a prolonged increase in the body’s estrogen levels.

One regrettable repercussion of the extra estrogen is that it forces your hair follicles to stay active well beyond their normal growth time (the anagen stage). Consequently, in the months of pregnancy there is a significant decrease in the number of “resting” hair follicles (the telogen stage).

In fact, by the last weeks before birth the decrease is such that your normal rate of hair loss (about 70 discarded hairs a day) may be reduced by as much as two thirds—although its not something you would notice.

However, after delivery it’s catch-up time. As your estrogen drops back to normal levels all those active hair follicles, overdue for a rest, begin to switch-off and enter the inactive telogen stage of the cycle.

That’s when a lot of follicles all stop growing hair at the same time. And this you may certainly notice, because suddenly you have a lot less hair. Often the hair loss is severe enough to become plainly visible—some women even worry about going bald.

This relatively common hair loss disorder is called postpartum alopecia, and it can persist and indeed become progressively worse for several non-glamorous months.

Fortunately postpartum alopecia is a temporary disorder.

Eventually the hair follicles manage to re-organize themselves, the new hairs replace the old ones, and the normal growth cycle is resumed.

That said, there can also be lasting effects. For those with certain types of hair, the new growth may be both thinner and sparser than before.

But now there is Cellex-C Hair Recovery Complex, to help you through to better hair days. This all-natural ingredient formula has proven it can deliver both immediate and long-term benefits. It works.

After just one application of this oil-free gel your hair will look fuller, healthier and generally more robust.

The instant effect is achieved by the formula’s known protein-building compounds that, combined with a natural glycosaminoglycan polymer film, provide the support structure to help thicken and moisturize the weakened hair shafts.

At a deeper level, phyto botanicals work synergistically with key amino acids and polypeptides to help stimulate the hair bulbs and help create an optimal environment for new hair growth.

In fact, regular application of Hair Recovery Complex over several weeks can lead to an apparent slowing of post-natal hair loss. You’ll see the difference.

If ever you had worries about thinning hair you can now brush them aside.
