A member asked:
My eyebrows are almost gone-(63 yrs old). i have taken armour thyroid for 40 years; with bi annual tsh tests (1.4). thinned quickly, in 6 months-why?

Eyebrows thinning : Something could have happened to change your thyroid hormone dose need. Has your diet changed? Are you using generic medication. For thyroid meds, I always recommend name brand only.
