Please get your hemoglobin, serum ferritin levels and thyroid status evaluated. You need to continue treatment for your thyroid issue.
If the above tests are normal, you can take a tablet with biotin, cysteine and methionine for 3 months. This will strengthen your hair roots.
For dandruff, wash your hair with an anti dandruff shampoo containing ketoconazole 2% and ZPTO 1% thrice a week. It is better to avoid oil. If you want to apply oil for conditioning effect apply it half an hour before bath and wash it off with a mild shampoo during bath.
Eat a balanced diet with proteins , fruits and green leafy vegetables.
Try to cut down mental stress.
Hope this helps you.
Take care.
