Hair thinning and hair loss
I have been having severe hairfall for the last few years. Over the last 2-3 years I have lost significant amount of hair (around 40%). I had hypothyroidism at level 11.3 and after continuous medication it came down to 3.5 - 4. Also had very low ferritin a few years back but now it is around 25. What are the possible reasons for such continuous hairfall and what should be the line of treatment?
