Your thyroid dose needs to be lowered or stopped because latest tests show that current dose is higher than your requirement. Hair fall can be due to thyroid issues, as well as other causes which may need testing
Next Steps
Please consult online to discuss whether you dose needs to be stopped or lowered based on your other symptoms and details of medical history
