Hello,
Yes,biotin may help you but you should have not stopped taking eltroxin because generally it has to be taken life long.
Also get tested for iron deficiency,VIT D and VIT B 12 deficiency.
Take proper amount of calcium.
Drink plenty of water and sleep well.
Keep away stress by doing regular exercises,yoga and deep breathing exercises.
Thanks
