If your TSH is controlled then think of some other cause for weight loss. Consult a Physician who will evaluate you clinically and may some investigations done to know the exact cause of weight loss.

Mr. lybrate-user, Thanks for the query. Usually in hypothyroidism there is an increase in weight. It is unusual to see weight reduction. However, since you have hashimoto's Thyroiditis (HT), it is better to get your blood glucose checked, to see if there is diabetes. Because uncontrolled diabetes can lead to weight loss. So please do check and came back. Thanks.
