Hair loss
Has anybody figured out what cause hair loss besides hypothyroidism? I have Hashimoto's. I know some vitamin deficiencies do. I'm thinking either the Armour is doing it or the 1 1/2 gr. dose too low. I just started t3. Is anybody experiencing hair loss from Cytomel? Thanks.

Hair loss overnight in 12year old son.
Hi all, my son came home from school in May and said to me " mum, look at my hair, it's fell out!" When I looked he had the size of a fifty pence piece patch missing on the top of his head. At first I thought he had put something from a science lesson on it but remember he hadn't had science! You could

All Over Hair Loss - Common?
Hi everyone, I've been trying to get a diagnosis of, well, anything for 8 years now. I've been severely ill and housebound by whatever is going on with me, and whilst I'm convinced it's a hormonal problem of some sort (adrenal or thyroid) I can't provide any blood tests that will lead to treatment.

Quality of life
I was fine until I started thyroid medication. Since then it has been down hill. Worse of all hair loss and weight gain.

eczema moisturisers
Hi everyone I am 19 and have had severe eczema all my life. I was told I would grow out of it so many of the GP's and doctors I saw never took me very seriously when I was young as they just saw me as a guinea pig to try different steroid creams and emollients. Having left college and the stress of

Bad hair condition
Can anyone suggest anything to do or take for my hair, its in terrible condition. I've tried stuff like argan oil etc and obviously can't take anything with kelp in it. I have had an underactive thyroid and take 200mg Thyroxine per day.

Hair loss 😢
Hi folks, I did post a few weeks ago about this but as it's still falling out I wondered if anyone has had any experience with this and if it's likely to resolve or continue? I'm currently on 100 Levo and I know it's a side effect of this but if anyone has experienced it could they remember roughly how

Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia and medication/ food intolerances?
Hi I am researching a little on Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia for a patient of mine who is interested in whether there are any people who have this condition and also have glaucoma. If so are you taking medication and which meds for this please? Also does anybody take HRT and has this affected their symptoms

Alopecia anyone?
I have recently been on a combination of 75mcg of Levo and 10mcg of T3 after previously been on 100mcg of Levo. I have now been diagnosed with alopecia totalis with the cause at present unknown. I was just wondering if anyone else had alopecia and if it was connected to T3? Thank you xx

Lupus/Sjogren and Ugly days!
Hey all Just having one of those days where my hair loss seems to be really noticeable, scalp glaring at me from mirror, weight gain around butt and tummy from prednisone seems to be wobblying more today and skin just looks thin, pasty and horrid. So.....not just bad hair day but "all over ugly day"

Alopecia areata
It isn't the first time it's happened (my hairdresser felt the need to invite half the staff in the salon to inspect my scalp when she first spotted a patch). But I now have a bald patch about the size of a penny, maybe a tad bigger, at the back of my head. Luckily it's not noticeable as my hair is shoulder

Ferritin
Hi, I haven't been diagnosed with thyroid problems but I have been having hair loss. My ferritin is 23 (15-150) which seems Low end of normal to me but the doctor said it wouldn't be that causing hair loss because my hemaglobin is normal (don't know the result) is this true or could my hair loss be due

Am I hypo or not?
Hello, I would like to consult with you if thyroids may cause my sympthoms or not. I have definately slow resting metabolism (when not high on cortisol). But thyroids are not just one thing which may cause it. So I would like to consult with you if thyroids are qualified for supplementing or not.

Endo removed during lap but not endo? Help me.
Hi, I need to vent, I'm at my wits end. I've been pushed from one Dr to another, had countless visits to a&e, ultrasounds, ablation and 2 laps. The latest lap in March 15 the surgeon told me he had removed endo from my pelvic wall and some ligaments. I went to a&e yesterday as the pressure felt like
