Hi, I recently noticed that I am missing lunula on all of my fingernails except for my thumbs. Could this be caused by underlying health problems or could it be benign?

It is not advisable to prescribe without examining the patient. Kindly send photos using online consult option for better understanding of the problem. Once diagnosis is made, then only we can prescribe some medicine. Please do not use anything without proper examination.
