Hi.

I am glad we connected. Welcome to HCM.

It is possible for smoking to affect the testosterone levels and to cause hair fall in some people. Hormone levels like that of Thyroid Hormone may also cause hair fall.

This can happen due to the changes in metabolism or the delay in healing. Any chronic disease can also adversely affect the body causing hairfall. It would be a good idea to see an Internal Medicine specialist to get this checked out.

I hope this helps you! All the best.
