About hair loss and weight loss
Hello doctor,
I had suffered from hypothyroidism for the past 4 months and irregular periods too.
I took propylthiouracil for about 3 months and novelon for 3 months and femilon for 3 months. Now the TSH level is normal. Still there is hair loss for me. How to promote hair growth?
