I'm a bit worried because I've been losing a lot of my chest hair lately. I saw a dermatologist and he said its alopecia areata, so he put me on UV treatment for about 6 weeks, but it didnt help at all. Then I went to a homeopathic doctor, and after doing a thyroid test, my TSH was around 8. He gave me some meds, but still, nothings working. Can you tell me what's going on?
Since the UV treatment and homeopathic medicines did not show any improvement, it's important to address the underlying thyroid issue. Your TSH level of around 8 indicates hypothyroidism, which can contribute to hair loss. The medications prescribed by the homeopathic doctor may not have been effective, so I recommend consulting with a medical doctor or endocrinologist for proper management of your thyroid condition.

I've just got my thyroid test results, and I'm a bit confused about what they mean. My T3 level is 91.35, T4 is 5.87, and TSH is 10.55. I don't have any symptoms like weight gain or loss. Is this something I should be worried about?
yes yo can start with levothyroxine 50mcg and repeat test after 3 months
