At Tricho Labs, we know that hair loss in men isn’t always about age or genetics. Thyroid conditions, including hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid) and hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid), can have a direct impact on scalp health and hair growth. If you're noticing diffuse thinning or a general lack of density, your thyroid could be playing a role. Our Hair Loss Serum is formulated to support hair regrowth during hormonal imbalance, calm the scalp, and nourish follicles affected by thyroid-related disruption.
Science-led support for your hair – because hormonal health matters.
Thyroid hormones play a vital role in regulating the body’s metabolism and cellular repair – including within the hair follicles. When thyroid hormone levels are too high or too low, it can disrupt the natural hair growth cycle, resulting in increased shedding or slower regrowth.
Common causes include:
Hair loss linked to thyroid imbalance is typically diffuse, meaning the hair thins evenly across the scalp, rather than in defined patches or patterns.
Healthy hair growth depends on a stable and regulated hormonal environment. Thyroid hormones help control the duration of the anagen (growth) phase. When disrupted, more hairs enter the telogen (resting) phase, leading to excessive daily shedding.
In men, this may be mistaken for early male pattern baldness, but the key difference is that thyroid-related hair loss is often temporary and reversible with the right treatment – especially when combined with targeted scalp support.
Alongside your medical treatment, supportive care for your scalp and overall health can aid recovery and improve regrowth. Consider the following:
Get your levels checked: Ask your GP to test TSH, T3, T4, and key nutrients like vitamin D, B12, and ferritin.
Focus on nutrition: Include selenium, zinc, protein, and iron – all important for thyroid and hair health.
Reduce stress: Chronic stress can worsen hormone disruption; regular exercise and sleep are essential.
Avoid harsh treatments: Reduce heat styling, chemical exposure, and tight headwear.
Be consistent: Hair may take 3–6 months to reflect improvements – stick with your routine.
Thyroid regulation takes time – but with the right care, hair often follows suit.
