Interesting, @BigChad . I didn't know iodine causes prostaglandin formation. I definitely have high prostaglandins, and anything more than 2 drops of Lugol's iodine makes my hair loss worse. When I took thyroid, I didn't have weight gain, but I did have increased hair loss.
How is your hairloss symptoms now TNT, has anything helped? I am in the same boat as you anything that revs my metabolism through foods or supplements increases my hair loss (following a scalp itch).
