My T-3 is low 2.3 but both my T-4 and TSH are normal. The doctor is going to supplement with some T-3 but I just want to check if this is the right course to take. In march I went on biodentical hormones (had a hysterectomy 12 yrs ago, now 57), and a little thyroid. The middle of June I began loosing my hair in handfuls. It is now three months and my hair is slowing down just a little. I was told to stop the thyroid because my levels did not change and I was loosing my hair, but a recent tests shows I'm low and I need it. One doctor tells me to continue thyroid one tells me to go off because of hair loss, I am totally confused and nervous, I would love to keep my hair. Your thoughts are appreciated. Thanks.
