How can I improve my hair after thyroid disorder?
Sylvia D asked:
My hair was always thin anyway, but recently I learned that I have an under active thyroid which apparently affected my hair. It went brittle and thin and was coming out a lot without growing back. It’s been 2 years since I went on meds but my hair is still thin. I’ve also tried different shampoo / cream conditioners both to take away the remaining dryness and flyaway, and to thicken it up but the only one that seems to do anything is Pantene. Does anyone have information on how to make the hair thicken up again? I understood that once my condition was stabilized, everything would get back to normal, but apparently not.

I have had both hyper and hypo thyroid problems and have done extensive research on both. I am not aware of any way to correct the damage done to the hair. Be thankful that your’s is just thin, mine is GONE.
Shave it and go bald.
It takes time, I am about 1 year on the proper meds and have been told that it will take at least another 2 years to get completely back to normal.
With your hair, I would visit a salon and have them talk to you about styles that will make it look like you have thicker hair and about products.
