Hello
Good day. You didn't mention if you are on treatment for hyperthyroidism. Your current TFT is normal. Hair loss need not be necessarily due to thyroid disorders. It could be from various other factors. How is your periods?
You may consider meeting a dermatologist for hair loss. Please understand that anybody would lose up to 100 hairs a day and normally you gain them back
