Thyrox 50Mcg Tablet Health Feed

Lybrate-user ji, thanks for the query.
Hypothyroidism is a hormone (thyroxine) deficiency disorder. This hormone is secreted by your thyroid gland. It is required every day for a number of vital metabolic activities and functioning of brain and intelligence. So there is a need for supplementation every day and for a lifetime. There is no cure. It can only be effectively controlled with adequate dosage of levothyroxine. Tsh needs to be maintained around 3 to 4 mu/l to keep all the symptoms in...more

Thyrox 3x and 6x both are effective in homeopathy. However a homeopathy physician can help to give you constitution medicine which will be more effective and can treat long term and help effectively.
Thyroid inum 200 also helps.

Wide fluctuations is thyroid function tests need to be evaluated. Only increasing the dose of thyroxine may resolve the issue. It is advised to consult endocrinologist with all your previous medical records for proper treatment.

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.

Lybrate-user, if you have no symptoms related to hypothyroidism and tsh levels are below 4 milli units/l, then you might reduce the dose of thyroxine to 12.5 mcg per day, then check tsh after 6 weeks, and see if that dose has been adequate in maintaining tsh level within limit. It is better not to discontinue the dose completely. Because hypothyroidism once developed is unlikely to disappear. Also check your tpo antibodies. Thanks.

Lybrate-user, Thanks for the query.
Hypothyroidism is a thyroxine hormone deficiency disease. Where your thyroid gland is not producing adequate or almost nil hormone. This hormone is needed every day for a number of vital functions in the body. So only way to treat is to supplement the hormone from outside. There is no other treatment. Doing yogic asanas will help in maintaining good health, but there is no role on production of thyroxine. One has to continue treatment for lifetime, plus it...more

Mr. lybrate-user, Thanks for the query.
WHen one is on treatment with adequate dose of Levothyroxine, TSH is maintained around 3 to 4mU/L. At that level all the symptoms are in check. If TSH level goes higher (as in your case), it suggests that your thyroxine dose is not enough. Therefore, your doctor has suggested the additional dose of the same. Please check tSH level after 6 to 8 weeks of taking that doe, to find out if TSH has come down as mentioned above. Thanks.

lybrate-user ji, Thanks for the query.
With TSH 56 mU/L, you have uncontrolled hypothyroidism, for which the treatment is taking adequate dosage of Levothyroxine, as being done now. However, the dosage needs to be properly calculated. Please check your TSH after 6 weeks, it should be maintained around 3 to 4 mU/L to be free from all the symptoms of Hypothyroidism. Treatment has to be continued for lifetime. You are very young, so please do not neglect. If you have any doubts please do come b...more
