Nutrafol Postpartum is a physician-formulated nutraceutical designed with natural ingredients that address key root causes that contribute to postpartum shedding, including physical and emotional stress and postpartum nutritional gaps, to support women with whole-body recovery through this transitional period for thicker, stronger hair growth.
Benefits
Whole-body Recovery
Immune-supporting ingredients like omega 3s and antioxidants promote recovery from physical stress.
Stress Management
Adaptogens and amino acids balance the stress response and support female reproductive health.
Replenishment
A combination of essential vitamins and minerals fills postnatal nutritional gaps as they relate to hair.
Hair Support
Formulated with ingredients shown to support hair growth, thickness, and strength with less shedding.
Indications
For postpartum women concerned with or experiencing excess shedding, slower growth, or thin, weak, brittle hair after childbirth
Special Features
- Physician developed with an OBGYN and breastfeeding friendly with whole-food sourced ingredients known to be used during lactation.
- Formulated without gluten, dairy, soy, artificial additives, and GMOs. Packaging is BPA- and glycerin-free.
- Fortified with amino acids, vitamins, botanicals, and minerals that improve skin health and support healthy mood.
- Fills the nutritional gaps between prenatal and postnatal needs.
Pregnancy
- Anagen phase (growth) is extended. The average 75-100 hairs per day that a woman typically sheds is lessened.
- Reason: Increased amounts of progesterone and estrogen induce anagen and prevent the hair follicle from shifting to the resting phase (telogen).
Post-birth
- Telogen rate rises. Hair shifts out of anagen, resulting in excess shedding about three months later.
- Reason: Estrogen and progesterone decline abruptly, while cortisol increases 200% 2-4 days after birth, suppressing anagen.
