Hi I'm a 29 year old male was diagnosed with Hyperactive/overactive thyroid, I was given 20mg of Carbimazole. For the first 2 months I felt really well but in the 3rd month I felt really bad, mussel cramps pains and I noticed hair loss and eyebrow loss, my hair went very dry, very static, itchy scalp, burning sensation and flaky skin(dandruff and large dead skin) they even went lighter. When I got a blood test done on the 3rd month(this was the first time since I was diagnosed) I went Hypoactive/underactive. I was advised by endo not to take any medication(Carbimazole) for next 2 weeks and then get another blood test, results came back and endo advised to take 5mg Carbimazole for 4 weeks had another blood test was advised thyroid levels are at a normal range but TSH still low so was advised to take 5mg one day and 10mg the second day. Thankfully my eyebro hair has reduced shedding but hair loss has gone worse to the point it's so bad when I stroke my hand across my hair I have at least 5-7 strands of hair on my hand and when I shower the drainage gets blokes and i got short hair.
Endo said this should get better and you hair loss is linked to going underactive and I should wait a few months.
Any advice would be much appreciated.
Many thanks
