Hi, I have hypothyroidism. Can you suggest me the foods that should be taken and that should not be taken. I am so scared, because my hair fall is too much happening even after taking medication like thyronorm 50 mcg, and calcium supplements and spynovin tablets and also my thyroid is normal now as I am taking medication. Please help me to avoid my hair loss and lower back pain.
