Q: Is there a reason for hair loss in female Addisonians. My hair is not falling out in clumps but it is getting very thin. I had a year on prempak C (HRT) I have no other health conditions. Is there anything I can do to prevent further hair loss?

A: Hair loss in women with Addison's Disease: If you have hair loss in the head despite adequate treatment of Addison's Disease and the exclusion of treatment of thyroid deficiency then I think you should regard the excessive hair loss as being unrelated.
