Hair Loss with Hashimotos: Seeking Advice

Your iron and/or ferritin levels could be low. Hair loss and thinning is a common symptom of low iron. My doctor had me take a metabolic panel and tested all my vitamin levels and found that I had low ferritin.

These were both so helpful thank u !! I’m going to go try the vitamin b supplements today 💛💛& also have an appointment w endo coming up soon !

The meds are for if your thyroid is destroyed. It sounds like the doctors don’t see much damage in your thyroid (which is good). You can have little to no damage but still have symptoms. I’d suggest alleviating stress (seriously, stress is a BIG contributor to autoimmune diseases) and making sure you’re getting all the vitamins and nutrients your body needs through diet. Because you are losing your hair, it sounds like you may be low in vitamin Bs. So, try to increase your intake of foods that have vitamin B in them!:) Sending healing vibes 🙏☀️
