[|AI|]  Hello and welcome to ChatDoctorSince you do have a thyroid problem, this could be the main cause of hair fall. Do continue the treatment as advised. You may most probably have to continue this life long to keep the levels in normal range. This will also help your skin and hair. Other causes to consider are age, genetic, any lifestyle or residence change, stress, any history of recent illness like typhoid, any chemical procedures, etc. You can start on supplements daily like Collinear. This needs to be continued at least for 2-3 months along with proper thyroid medication. Apply Recite hair oil to the scalp at night. Do consult a dermatologist as well, to assess your type of hair loss and to assess the results. They may also suggest some routine blood tests if required. Once your hormonal levels are normal you will notice improvement in hair growth as well, but it will take time. If medical methods do not work at all for you, certain new surgical procedures can be considered such as PRP.hair transplant etc., as will be advised by your consulting doctor after observation, if and when required. Hope this helps.
