Has anyone had hair loss with Levothyroxine? I have been on Levothyroxine since July and loseing a lot of hair.

I was on levothyroxine with no issues, switched to unithroid and my hair fell out like crazy and I had HORRIBLE anxiety. I switched back to levothyroxine and my hair started growing back and is so much fuller. My point is, not all thyroid medication is the same, what works for me might not work for you. I would see if you can switch to synthroid and maybe that will work for you!

It seems the side effects of the drug is weight loss and tiredness, etc. I do not think hair loss is a side effect. You could be losing hair because many different things. Stress, mental issues, anxiety itself. Etc.
