I am 56 & take eltroxin 50 mg. Every day .My recent thyroid report T3, T4,TSH is normal .For past one year there are dark spots on my forehead like age spots. L used to drink excess coffee 2/3 cups a day. Now for past 3 months have stopped having coffee as l got to know that coffee is not good for thyroid. As my forehead is big it looks awful. Is there any remedy for reduction of the spot. Please advice.

lybrate-user ji, Thanks for the query. Madam it would have been better if you had mentioned actual TSH levels, because I am not sure what is "normal" according to you. It should be around 3 to 4 mU/L, at that level most of the symptoms related to hypothyroidism. As regards the spots on the forehead, first is to get TSH down to normal. Then if the problem persists please do see a skin specialist. Your weight seems to be pretty high, with a BMi of 26.95 kgs/Sq meter (normal < 23 kgs). Your ideal body weight should be around 58 kgs or so. Thanks.
