Wondering if anyone on here lost all of the hair on their body with in a short period of time. IF you have been successful in regrowth, what did you do?

Welcome to the forum Myoapony,

So we can offer better advice, can you tell us more about your thyroid condition, eg when you were diagnosed, any other ongoing symptoms (in addition to hair loss and weight gain you have mentioned), current medication & dosage, plus blood test results (with ranges in brackets) for:

TSH

FT3

FT4

Plus any antibody and key vitamin tests (ferritin, folate, vitamins D and B12)
