I am Facing Weight Gain and Hair Loss Problem from last 1 year after Typhoid so I am having doubt of Thyroid so how can I clear my doubt?

Question

Hi lybrate-user,
You can get a blood test for thyroid profile, you can know if you have any abnormality in thyroid.
Hair fall/loss can be due to variety of causes. However, many of them can be controlled and dealt with. Most common cause is nutrient deficiency which can be rectified by oral medications and supplements. There are medicines available for local application which are also known to give significant results. Treatments like mesotherapy, microneedling and PRP show significant long term effects.
There are two pillars for weight loss. Diet and exercise. Although right diet can control further weight gain and assure overall health, exercise is must for weight reduction. 30 mins walk (to start with), with well-balanced diet (depending on your health condition) can lead to gradual and healthy weight loss. Workout, eat well, be patient. Your body will reward you.
I would be happy to help you. Please consult me
