Eyebrow hair loss

by Kimb9, Oct 15, 2009 06:23PM

I'm a 20 year old female and have been losing hair from both eyebrows in the same place, It's been going on for a while but hasn't been noticeable. Now it looks extremely different. I haven't been losing hair anywhere else, and my doctor has no idea.
I've been on the Loette birth control pill for a couple of years and was wondering if that may the cause of it?

Thinning eyebrows can be a strange symptom of low thyroid. Other symptoms:Are you tired all the time. More body aches / pains than is normal. Brain fog? Unexplained weight gain? Digestive issues? Always cold? The list goes on.

Thyroid tests are TSH, freeT3, and free T4.
