Today 7/3/2021 still my TSH level is- 9.63 My concern is why my TSH levels are not in control despite taking medicine... Also my hair is getting thinner day by day.

Your labs are suggestive of uncontrolled hypothyroidism on Thyronorm. It is possible than the current dose of thyronorm is not adequate for you. Besides hypothyroidism, hair loss can be related to other hormonal and nutritional deficiencies.
