Sheehan Syndrome
Sheehan syndrome is a condition of the pituitary gland that appears after significant blood loss during or after childbirth, which reduces the body's production of several hormones.
Common symptoms: difficulty or inability to breastfeed, absence of menstruation after childbirth, marked fatigue, cold intolerance, and hair loss.
When to seek care? An evaluation is worthwhile when fatigue, breastfeeding problems, or menstrual changes persist after a complicated delivery.
Which specialist treats it? The gynecologist is a natural starting point for studying changes after childbirth; the dermatologist can assess associated skin and hair manifestations. If you notice these changes after a delivery with heavy bleeding, discussing them with a professional helps guide the hormonal workup.
