What reason is darling pillow baldness

summary

In our life, we should avoid the occurrence of pillow baldness in time, In any case, I should be clear in my heart. Recently, I found that there was a circle of my baby with no hair on the back of his head, which was very ugly. In fact, not only my baby, but other babies of the same age were also bald. I heard their mother say that they suspected that the baby was calcium deficient. They once took the baby to the hospital to check the trace elements, but the baby was not calcium deficient. What's the reason for that? Now let's have a look

What reason is darling pillow baldness

First: there is another way of saying that pillow baldness is a physiological phenomenon caused by a child's hair change, not a disease, and has nothing to do with calcium deficiency. After the birth of the child because sleep time is more, occipital friction inevitable, just accelerated the occipital fetal hair fall off, so there is a pillow baldness.

Second: almost all newborns will lose part or all of their hair, which is an expected policy phenomenon. Before the mature hair grows out, the child's original hair will fall off first, so the hair loss in the first 6 months does not need to be too concerned. And the baby's hair thickness varies from person to person.

Third: therefore, occipital alopecia is not necessarily related to calcium deficiency. If occipital alopecia has no other symptoms, there is no need to go to the hospital at all, and there is no need to go to the blood test, film, bone mineral density and so on.

matters needing attention

Except for premature and low birth weight children, breast milk and formula milk before one year old can basically meet the calcium needs of children. Excessive calcium may lead to constipation, affect the absorption of iron and zinc, increase the burden on the kidney, so do not equate pillow baldness and calcium deficiency, let the baby supplement unnecessary calcium.
