HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is the hair related symptoms then it may not be due to hormone but it could be fungal infection of hair, Povidone Iodine" shampoo can be used, apply this shampoo on patches and leave it there for some time say at least 30 minuets or more hope this information helps.
