Can high estrogen or testosterone be causing my hair loss or my thyroid?

No effect E2 on Hair: High Estrogens do not cause hair loss. Testosterone and its going to DHT (dihydroT) goes to the male hormone receptor in the hair follicle and usually increases to normal hair loss of 100-150 hairs a day

See a dermatologist: Bring with you all pills, vitamins, etc. Bring copies of any blood tests. Low estrogen, high testosterone, low thyroid, and 629 other things may be affecting your hair.
