Hyothyroidism
Long story short - I am being tested for hypothyroidism. Could be the beginning stages as only my T3 # was off a few weeks ago. My hair is falling out also so they are retesting me in a few weeks.
Anyway - the past few days my lips are SOOO dry. Slight cracking in the corner. I googled it and Dr Oz says could be a symptom of hypothyroidism. Anyone else experience this?

I have it and am on Synthroid daily. My lips are always dry, but I am not sure if that is why.
As for hair, try taking BioSil liquid Silica. It has to be taken by drops in juice every day for a long time, over six months because hair grows slowly, before you will see results, but clinical trials have proven liquid silica to be very good for strengthening and thickening hair. It has done wonders for mine. It's also good for skin.

I have it and am also on Synthroid daily. My lips are always dry, always. I thought I maybe wasn't drinking enough water, but I guess it could be thyroid related. Cherry chapstick is the only thing that helps me. I do occasionally get cracked corners, maybe once a year.
Hair loss is also a constant problem. When I color my hair I especially lose a lot. I take Biotin to strengthen it and grow it back faster, seems to help. Good luck!
