I am experiencing hair loss due to thyroid issues and am taking Eltroxin 50 mcg. My recent blood test results came back normal, but I am still suffering from thinning hair. What should I do to manage this?

Hair loss can persist despite normal TSH due to chronic thyroid or iron deficiency. Consider ferritin and Vitamin D testing.
Dr. Yusuf Suggests...
Take a Ferritin Test Test or Take a Vitamin D Test Test

View allI have been struggling with persistent dandruff, causing itching and hair fall. Despite undergoing treatment for 7 months, there has been no improvement, and I have also started noticing grey hairs. I have my blood reports as well. During the treatment, my doctor prescribed several tablets along with a lotion and shampoo. Currently, I have stopped the tablets but continue using Saliclo lotion and Tarryshine shampoo. I am unsure if I can overcome this problem. I am attaching my latest two prescriptions for your reference. Please advise on what to do next.

I am suffering from severe hairfall. My front scalp is almost visible now and even a slight touch causes hair to break. I have been on medicines but have had no results and hence want to try PRP. Since I am only 21 I want to know the effects and results of PRP. I really hope to get my hair back at least to some extent. I have been advised to do PRP but I am still skeptical since there is a lot of money involved.
