Very likely....: due to hyperthyroid state. Once the thyroid balance is restored, you will have your hair back. Be patient with restoring thyroid balance.

T4 Free Level of 067 and TSH of 1.3- would this be considered normal range even though having symptons- massive hair loss, weight gain, fatigue, etc.

A member asked:

Could I have a thyroid issue? My t4 is on the always low end (0.8 ug/dl) however my TSH which was previously average has been going down over the year (was 2.1 now 0.7). Symptoms are hair loss, dry mouth, aches, fatigue, irregular periods, sweating?

A member asked:

TSH historically 4.5-4.7. Recent TSH was 6.02 uIU/ml. Primary care MD repeated the TSH and added T4 Free. Results = TSH 3.56 and T4 0.96. I have severe fatigue, muscle aches, sensitivity to cold + some hair loss. Could this be hypothyroidism?
