Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) occurs in up to 1% of patients receiving unfractionated heparin. HIT may occur even when very-low-dose heparin (eg, used in flushes to keep IV or arterial lines open) is used. The mechanism is usually immunologic.
The hair loss can seem more extreme if your hair grew much more than normal during pregnancy, or if you have long hair. Most women will return to their usual hair growth cycle within six months, or between 6 and 12 months after birth.
Babies' hair growth patterns can vary widely. Some babies are born with a full head of hair, while others have only a sparse covering. What's more, infants often lose all the hair they're born with during their first six months. Sometimes the hair grows right back in, but in a different color or texture. In other babies, it takes a while to grow back. Either way, be reassured that your child will have normal hair growth at some point, although it may take time to be noticeable. Show sources
