Hair Loss
by purplesalsa, Aug 10, 2007 10:46AM
I was diagnosed with hyperthroid about 2 years ago. I've been on medication and about 2 months ago went off of it because my thyroid levels were normal. Now I am starting to experience hair loss. Has anyone else had this happen?

Antithyroid agents have been reported to cause hair loss : - carbimazole, Iodine, thiocyanate, thiouracil, Methimazole, propylthiouracil. (as well as many other drugs).
However, before assuming it's your thyroid or your meds., always have any hair loss evaluated by a dermatologist or hair loss expert to rule out any other causes such as infection or other health conditions .
