A member asked:

I am hypothyroid after having a total thyroidectomy in nov 2012. when will my hair loss stop?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Under control: Your hair loss should get better once your thyroid hormones are controlled, this is normally achieved via taking a thyroid hormone pill and getting bloodwork, if not, other reasons for hair loss should be checked.
