hi
hypothyroidism is usually associated with these symptoms. But hair loss should not be so severe if the thyroid levels are normal. Get a detailed thyroid assay done and try changing the tablet. Consult a endocrinologist. take health supplements,drink more of fruit juices. Take iodine rich food. rule out other associated scalp conditions from a dermatologist.

HI
HAIR LOSS SEEMS TO BE BECAUSE OF OTHER HORMONAL CHANGES. BECAUSE YOUR THYROID TESTS ARE NORMAL. YOU SHOULD GET OTHER BLOOD TESTS DONE TO FIND OUT EXACT CAUSE. DE-STRESS YOURSELF,DO YOGA,MEDITATION. TAKE VITAMIN E TABLETS

hello there
