Occipital baldness usually disappears gradually until the baby returns to normal around 6 months of age. Occipital baldness is hair loss or lack of hair growth in the occipital area and occurs in infants under 6 months of age. If the hair loss in the occipital area is due to non-physiological reasons, such as excessive sweating or sleeping in the same position for a long time, as the baby grows and is able to turn over on his own and change his sleeping position, his hair will slowly grow out and the occipital baldness will disappear. It usually takes about 6 months, and some babies will continue to have this condition until 7-8 months of age. If the pillow baldness is caused by the lack of trace elements, such as calcium and iron deficiency, you need to supplement calcium and iron in time, and the symptoms of pillow baldness will disappear. Therefore, once a baby has occipital baldness, parents are advised to take their child to the pediatrician or pediatrician at the hospital in a timely manner to clarify the cause and then treat the problem.
