It will enhance the natural healing mechanism (to recovery faster ). You can co...more

Do the correct basic tests for thyroid function which is six in number. If you have done only the total T4 ,total T3 and TSH the 3 tests commonly done your tests are incomplete. You are missing the autoimmune cause which should never be left out.
Hypothyroidism usually does not require lifelong treatment.
What patients are prescribed is the synthetic. T4 Thyroxine known by brands like
Thyronorm./Thyrox/ Synthroid /Eltroxin which may or may not be the correct drug you need.

Mr. lybrate-user, Thanks for the query.
To treat hypothyroidism only available drug is Levothyroxine tablets. Hence, if you have that condition, then it may be necessary to take Thyroxine tablets. But I can only give a proper yes or know based on actual TSH value, BP reading plus some details on the heart condition. Since nothing is mentioned, it is difficult to give any opinion. Thanks.

Hello, Thanks for the query.
Levothyroxine tablets have to be taken early morning on empty stomach, then nothing should be taken for at least 1 to 1 and half hours. This is absolutely necessary, for helping proper absorption of thyroxine. Thanks.

lybrate-user ji, Thanks for the query.
Ideally when one is on treatment with adequate dosage of Levothyroxine, TSH is maintained around 3 to 4 mU/L, at which almost all the symptoms are in check.
When TSH goes <0.1 mU/L, the dosage of thyroxine needs to be properly adjusted (reduced, usually by 12.5 to 25 mcg per day). Then TSh needs to be checked after 6 weeks to see if necessary level is maintained. Thanks.

Hello, Thanks for the query.
Hypothyroidism is a hormone (Thyroxine T4) deficiency disorder. Which means your thyroid gland is not producing enough or nil of that hormone. This is a very vital hormone required for a multiple metabolic functions in the body including normal functioning of brain. So we need to supplement it from outside. This has to be done for lifetime. There is NO OTHER MEDICINE. I hope you understand. Thanks.

Krutujaji, Thanks for the query.
If on treatment then TSH should be maintained between 3 to 4 mU/L to be free fro all the symptoms of hypothyroidism.Since your TSH is 13 mU/L, it shows that hypothyroidism is not controlled at all. This means thyroxine dosage has to increase from the present one. Then after tstarting the increased dose, TSH should be checked after 6 weeks to see if there is necessary change. Thanks
