Hello. Since your thyroid status has now been corrected, we can move on to other causes of hair fall starting from the commonest - nutritional. Zinc and Biotin deficiencies are known to cause hair loss. You can take a supplement for those. Next, if you are overweight, weight reduction would help too. In both males and females, too much of androgenic hormones cause hair loss, weight loss sometimes helps. If all these donot bring desired results then we may have to take medications for the same like minoxidil. Hope this helps.
