How common is hair loss after pregnancy? i'm losing large clumps daily but i'm also being tested for lupus. i gave birth 4 months ago. cause?

Hair loss: Congrats on your new baby. Enjoy! Regarding your hair loss I cannot link it to your pregnancy but there may be a link to lupus if that is diagnosed. Independent of lupus you must see your obstetrician about hair loss.
