A member asked:
Lost a patch of hair than found out i have hashimotos thyroid problems. will the hair grow back? it's been 6 years and will i loose more hair?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly: Thyroid level changes, either going up or down are associated with temporary hair loss. A chronically low level causes chronic hair loss. Autoimmune disorders, such as hashimotos can be associated with a chronic diffuse hair loss. Alopecia areata is a seperate but associated autoimmune disorder in which one loses patches of hair resulting in bald spots. This can be treated.
