Thank you for the Welcome.   I am hoping someone will have some answers for me.  I am not sure what I should do about this thyroid hair loss I am having. I read that adding t3 helps with hair loss?  I know you can not believe everything you read. Right?  I did get my new tests back from the doctor today and now I am considered hyperthyroid instead of hypothyroid.  I just can not seem to get the right dosage needed to fix me.  Help.

have you checked your ferritin levels as low iron can also cause hair loss

Hi, thanks for the post back.

Yes, They did a complete panel of tests and said my iron levels were fine.  I wondered as well about that.  My new tests for tsh and free t4 came back and the tsh was a bit in the low end of the range.  Doctor said I was heading towards hyper mode.
