Hair loss is a symptom of Hormonal Imbalance? Hair grows more slowly and gets much thinner as estrogen and progesterone levels fall. The production of androgens, or a class of male hormones, rises in response to a drop in these hormones. Androgens cause hair follicles to shrink, which causes head hair loss.  Hormonal imbalances can occur in both men and women and can result in hair loss or thinning. Treating the imbalance frequently encourages hair growth. Although most people associate hormone imbalances with estrogen or testosterone, problems with your thyroid can also cause hair thinning. Dihydrotestosterone a hormone that your body makes as a consequence of testosterone, is the specific hormone that causes hair loss in both sexes.

Endocrine glands are therefore thought of as ductless glands.  One hormone may have several impacts on various target organs, and conversely, more than one hormone may have an impact on a single target organ. Hormones have a wide variety of roles and modes of acti...

Nearly every organ in your body is impacted by thyroid hormones because they regulate how your body uses energy, including the rate at which your heart beats.  To identify hypothyroidism , accurate thyroid function tests are available.
