What Causes Loss Of Eyebrows When Suffering From Hashimotos?
I was diagnosed with Hashimotos in 1993, and over the last five years, I have lost most of my eyebrows. Six months ago I began an autoimmune Paleo diet and also started methotrexate upon a new diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis. My eyebrows made a beautiful comeback and I don't know which caused it,bathe diet or the immunosuppressant meds. Any thoughts?
