unPAUSED with Dr. Mary Claire Haver · Menopause Masterclass: Why Your Hair Is Thinning and What Works · 15 Sep 2026 podcast

This isn't a slow, gradual process.

This is 10 alarm fire, what the hell's going on?

I'm pulling out chunks of my hair.

When I was still doing obstetrics and delivering babies, I had my postpartum patients calling me in an absolute panic when I first started practicing because I wasn't trained to like let women know this was going to happen and that it would grow back eventually.

So once I figured out all these, I would stop the freak outs when I would let them know, hey, you know, at their postpartum visit, which was typically at six weeks.

I would say in the next month or two or three, you are going to start shedding lots of hair.

Your hair actually shifted into different phases while you were pregnant.

You may have enjoyed thicker hair, you know, bouncier hair, and that's going to go away.

You're going to lose that hair.

And so just knowing this was coming really helped with some of the anxiety around when the shed started to happen.

Now, I knew this was going to happen to me.

Did not make it.

much better when it did happen to me postpartum it really freaked me out but i knew it was going to happen and i knew it would grow back but it does take up to a year to completely go back to its normal state so just knowing that might happen but i do want to talk about glp-1s here specifically rapid weight loss from a glp-1 receptor agonist is now recognized as a telogen effluvium trigger

Not because of the drug directly, but because the speed of the weight loss.

So it's not like the GLP-1s are binding to the hair follicle.

It is because you're protein energy deficient.

Remember, protein is one amino acids or one of the key things we need for healthy hair growth.

The huge metabolic shifts that are happening.

It's going to be increasingly common as more and more women are taking GLP-1s.

And it's just as important if you're starting on one that you are warned that this might happen.
