Suggest Treatment For Hair Loss

I have a low thyroid and have taken lovestatin for (12) years. For the past year I have been losing my hair. I wake up with lots of hair on my pillow like some one in chemo. I further take blood pressure

meds, levrox. and 81mg asprin everyday. Could any of this be the cause of my hair loss?

Hello,
Thanks for the query.
Low thyroid levels can be the main cause for hair fall.
Make sure your thyroid levels remains normal with adequate supplements.
I can suggest you few supplements.
Biotin causes hair growth.
It is one of the component of hair building unit.
It also promotes utilization of proteins by hair.
Use minoxidil along with biotin.
Its a good treatment.
Apart from this you can also use tab androanagen.
Regarding food you can take any diet rich in protein.
Also you can wash hair daily.
Washing wont cause hair fall.
Let me know if you have any other doubt.
Thank you
