Hello and thank you for asking!
I have gone carefully through your concern.
The body requirements for levothyroxine change during the life, for the unknown reasons.
to exclude hypothyroid as a cause of your hair loss you should check the thyroid hormones:
-TSH, FT4 and Ft3.
If they result to be within the normal ranges with the actual dose, i would suggest to check iron levels, to exclude an anemia.
Kind regards,
Dr.Mirjeta
