Mr. lybrate-user, Thanks for the query. Hypothyroidism does lead to hair fall, if not well controlled. Since you are on treatment, then it should have been reduced or stopped. When on treatment TSH should be maintained < 3 mU/L for being free from all the symptoms of hypothyroidism. Hair fall is one of the last symptoms to improve. So please check the TSH value, and if it is higher than above recommended then dose of thyroxine will have to be increased. After increasing the dose, you should check the TSH again after 6 weeks to see if recommended range is achieved. Thanks.
