Mr Vinayak, Thanks for the query. I have seen the query. I do understand that you have hypothyrooidism are taking 100 mcg of Levothyroxine. But there is no mention of current or recent TSH level. Unless that is known, there is no way to know whether hypothyroidism is in control or not. In hypothyroidism when it is not in control hair fall is one of the common symptoms. So please check TSH and see if it is around 3 to 4 mU/L, at that level most of the symptoms are in check. Another aspect is your BMI( Body Mass Index) which is 29.81kga/Sq meter*Normal < 23 kgs /Sq meter), which means there is an excess of over 17 kgs. This can be due to uncontrolled hypothyroidism plus improper food habits, no exercise or over all lifestyle. So please check TSH and come back. Thanks.
