Thinning hair?: Many women have thinning hair as they get older, but you're just a kid at 38! sometimes hyperthyroidism can make hair feel finer and you appear to have less of it. Sometimes anemia or low iron stores will be related to hair thinning. (doctors often check a ferritin level to evaluate this.) you may want to talk to a skin specialist (dermatologist) about this. Good luck. Lgromkomd.
