My shower head has been working fine every day until today. I turned the water on and it came out fine in the faucet for the tub. Then I lifted the lever on the top of the faucet for the water to be redirected to the shower head. I could hear the water shoot up the pipes and then when it came to the shower head, the water just trickled out with no pressure. Barely any water was coming out. Every day before today the water would shoot out with good pressure.

It probably has a strainer screen that is clogged.

Last night I went to try the shower again and now the water pressure is back to what it was....!?!? A few days ago we started using a shower that is in a bathroom on the other side of the wall so I don't know if that has any affect on it. That shower hadn't been used in 6+ years. And the morning the "very low pressure" happened, the other shower had been used 1 hour before. Does that even matter?!
