I am 20 years old. Today I have checked my TSH, T3,T4. And the result is (TSH: 7.70 uIU/ml) (T3: 111 ng/dl) (T4: 10.3 ug/dl). The doctor said I have hypothyroidism seeing my test report. But I am experiencing the symptoms of hyperthyroidism like my body temperature is always high, premature ejaculation, thin hair, cramps, excessive sweating, difficulty sleeping and sometimes I feel uncomfortable swallowing. I am also very thin and have difficulty gaining weight. How is it possible to experience such problem in hypothyroidism? Please help. Thanks in advance.

Hi lybrate-user! From your reports, it seems that you have what is called- Sub-Clinical Hypothyroidism. But from your history, it seems you have symptoms of Hyperthyroidism. In conclusion, it is unlikely to be hyperthyroidism. It could be some form of anxiety that you are undergoing presently. It'll be best to go for a proper consultation to have your symptoms analysed in details. Further management can be adviced only upon analysis of your symptoms. There is no need to panic. The condition is manageable. All the best!

Mr. lybrate-user, Thanks for the query. Your Thyroid test report shows presence of subclinical hypothyroidism. In hyperthyroidism TSH level is below normal lower limit, around 0.01 or lower. Since TSH is 7.7 mU/L, it is subclinical hypothyroidism. When TSH goes above 10 mU/L then it is overt hypothyroidism and treatment is advised. Thanks.

Hypothyroidism is a condition in which the thyroid gland is under active and does not produce sufficient amounts of thyroid hormones required in the body. The most cause of hypothyroidism is Hashimoto?s thyroiditis. Hashimoto?s thyroiditis is an auto immune disorder in which the antibodies are produced by the immune system against its own tissue, which in turn attacks the thyroid gland resulting in hypothyroidism.Severe Iodine defficiency can also lead to hypothyroidism .
