Did it improve a bit when you got on thyroxine? Mine did but it still falls out.

You're welcome Diane :) xxx

My hair still falls out even though I take. Thyroxine for under active thyroid it hasn't made any difference to me. Xx

I have an under active thyroid. It went undetected for years so now I have patches on my scalp that are scarred and hair will never grow back because of it. I'm not saying it will cure it, but you could use Minoxidil products, they are very effective on hair (treats the scalp as appose to the hair). There is also La Biosthetique products (they are pricey but very good). I went to a Tricologist but there was nothing that could be done because of the scarring.

Hope that helps.

I have an under active thyroid and my hair falls out. I wake up on a morning and my pillow is like a door mat, when my partner washes my hair there is enough to make a wig for some one.

My hair breaks off apparently, I thought it was due to the radiation I was exposed to for the eye cancer treatment, but it was such a short exposure i know think it's a fibro thing. My thyroid is fine, (like my hair), and I got lucky with a Lush product called R&B,a leave in moisturiser. Not a help if your hair is falling out rather than breaking off I know, but if your thyroid is ok perhaps it's worth checking out breakage? I'll keep my fingers crossed for you, (in my head anyway)!
