Hi

What is your latest thyroid function test report ? Have you been taking Neomercazole for more than 4 years ? Low thyroid (hypothyroidism) can lead to hairfal and it is possible that since you have been taking Neomercazole for a long time you may have developed iatrogenic hypothyroidism. I would advice you to get a thyroid function test done and report back ASAP.
