Hair loss and mild headaches

Hi! I'm new here. started taking Armour 5 days ago, and I noticed that I am losing more hair than before. Will this stop before becoming bald? I am also suffering from mild headaches. Anybody has experience with Armour? So far, I like it, and I prefer it to Synthroid, which was making me depressed, gained weight and it gave me terrible migraines. I am just wondering if these mild side effects will eventually stop? And when?

Anybody has lost weight while being on Armour?

Thank you!

Hi I am on Levothyroxine 50 mcg My hair is coming out a lot as well and going very thin around the temples. I have had migraine since teens but they got worse when I was obviously developing hyperthyroidism. Just had the Radioactive treatment to get rid of nodule and on 80 mg propranolol and the migraines seem to have nearly gone. Think there is a link between them and thyroid hormone fluctuations.
