it definitely does sound thyroid related but there could be other factors at play here. if you have access to a good endocrinologist talk to them. the trouble with hyperthyroidism is that it's rather difficult to control - one of the only cures known is to kill part of the thyroid. that may be why your doctor is having trouble. some people take saw palmetto to help stop hair loss but talk to your doctor before trying that because it might affect your medications. it sounds like you have two causes of your hair loss. the hyper thyroid is one and testosterone is the other - good old male pattern baldness. the propecia is working by blocking some of the effects of the testosterone that's what saw palmetto does too. perhaps you can devise a combination therapy and get better results. if all else fails though keep in mind that a totally bald man can be very attractive especially if he is otherwise healthy and strong. it can be a very good look so you may end up wanting to embrace that.
i am a male suffering from hair loss since age 16 and i have hyperthyroidism. . i am a male began losing my hair when i was 16. my hair fell out very rapidly. soon after i was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism. the hair loss slowed after starting medication but continued now 23 and my hair loss has continued. starting taking propecia about a year and a half ago haven't noticed any difference besides that my hair loss has slowed more. no one in my family suffered from early hair loss or severe hair loss just basic male hair loss with age. does this sound thyroid related?
