Postpartum hair loss

Question

Asked for Female, 19 Years

I'm 4 months postpartum and have been losing a lot of hair. I know hair loss after a pregnancy is normal but I have noticed bald spots on my temples. Should I continue taking my prenatal vitamins (I am exclusively breastfeeding) or is a hair,skin,and nail vitamin okay.
