Hair Loss from Hair Tracks

I am a 42 year old female and I was recently diagnosed with graves disease and i had iodine treatment to destroy the hyperthyroidism and I went into hypothyroidism. I wore tracks in my hair and noticed my scalp was itching and after taking the hair tracks out I noticed balding where the tracks were and my hair falling out. Will I get my hair back?

Traction alopecia, which appears to be the diagnosis, needs a recovery period in which you must wait up to a year or so to determine if the hair will grow back. I would not do anything but wait and do not use anything that will pull on the hair, or it will just make the situation worse. I am assuming that the hair loss reversed when you got control of your thyroid problem.
