Hi thanks for contacting HCM....

Your thyroid problem might lead you hair problem ....
But here you can have alopecia aereta like male pattern baldness also ....

So you are given correct treatment with vitamin tablets and minoxidil solution...

By usage of minoxidil your hair fall will be prevented but it will not lead new hair follicle generation ....
When you stop it hair fall can again start ...

So minoxidil taken until you want to preserve hair ...
The permenant treatment is hair transplantation ......
PRP also gaining popularity. ...

With medication control your thyroid problem ....

Take care .....
