Suggest Treatment For Hair Loss And Chills Despite A Normal Thyroid Report

I am losing my head hair. I was taking tamoxifen for a year and stopped a month ago. I think it might be due to this; my oncologist thought so also. I have normal thyroid function results. What can I do to stop this hair loss. Also, my hair seems to be very fine. Another thing that has been different for me. This past winter and spring I have been very cold; more so than usual. I started taking a Biotin tablet 2 weeks ago. My hairdresser doesn t notice a patchy loss. Thank you.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Hair loss may be due to nutritional deficiencies like iron and protein, hormonal causes like androgenic alopecia, genetic causes like male pattern of baldness or using hard water etc.
Until examination is done, it is difficult to say what it is.
Take high protein and vegetable diet, avoid smoking and caffeine drinks. use multivitamin tablet's.

Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
