Question
The hair around my forehead and towards the crown is becoming gradually thinner which is making me very self-conscious.
Could this be linked to hormone changes and therefore is it worth getting my GP to do a blood test?
Answer
Yes it could be linked to hormone changes and I see you have hypothyroidism. This is a common cause of such hair thinning so it’s time to have a blood test to check the current levels of thyroid hormone in your system.
If that has been done recently then it could still be due to other hormonal changes - the sex hormones. The best thing to do is have it checked out.
Yours sincerely
