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

It looks like you are suffering from the side effects of Armour. Your dose of the said medication needs to be monitored or other medication (substitute) needs to be given if you are having excess hair loss, irritability, discomfort, or sleeplessness. Get in connection with your treating doctor & report to hi your problems at the earliest. In the meantime, take yogurt, calcium & protein rich food along with multivitamins (A, B5, C & iron, Folic acid) as a supplement. Do not use chemical cosmetic shampoo or chemical hair products. You can use topical scalp medications like Minoxidil (Rogain), drink plenty of water & eliminate stress.

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