7Hair Loss
Losing a couple of hairs on a daily basis isn’t unusual. However, if you notice large clumps of hair when brushing or taking a shower, it might be a symptom of Hashimoto’s disease. It is caused by some hormonal changes in the body when your thyroid is affected by the condition. Thyroid-related hair changes and loss has some distinctive features:
– Changes in the texture of your hair. It would become extra fine, soft, coarse, or dry
– Hair loss happens in separate spots of the scalp, leading to circular, smooth bald patches.
– Thinning or diffuse hair loss across the entire scalp [7]
