Hello XXXXXXX
Thanks for posting your query on health care magic.

Let me answer your query one by one.

1. After couple of months again she started having more bleeding(we had fixed copper T in between). Problem of bleeding in between the periods is due to copper T insertion.
Some women do not tolerate copper T. I suggest you to get the copper T removed and go for other method of contraception.

2. From last two weeks she is having more hair fall also. Hair fall is a very common problem after delivery. Since estrogen levels decrease following delivery, it results in hair fall.
Ask her not to worry.
She will regain all her hair within 6 months. There is nothing to worry.

Hope this helps.
Feel free to ask if you have further queries. I will be happy to help.
regards,
Dr Nilofer
