Follow this 1. Take your breakfast every day. Don't skip it. U should eat whatever your mother or grandparent eat in bfast. I mean to say whatever is your traditional food. If punjabi eat paratha, if belongs to south then take idli/ dosa etc. (preferably within 10 mins of waking up). No only biscuits or rusk will not do. 2. Don't overeat 3. Don't take tea empty stomach. Eat something like a banana (if you are not diabetic) or any seasonal fruit or soaked almonds and a glass of plain water first thing in the morning 4. Have light meals every 2 hours (in addition to your breakfast, lunch n dinner) e.g. Nariyal paani, chaach, a handful of mixed dry fruits, a handful of peanuts, any fresh n seasonal fruit (eat whole fruit not juice), a cup of curd/milk etc 5. Take simple food like rice n dal in dinner. Finish your dinner at least 2 hours before going to sleep. 6. Maintain active life style7. Avoid fast foods, spicy n fried foods, carbonated beverages 8. Take a lot of green vegetables n fruit. 9. Drink lot of water.10. Everyday preferably sleep on same time 11. Take 1tsp of ghee in bfast, lunch n dinner. Exercise in the form of yoga, cycling, swimming, gym etc. Till lock down do suryanamaskar. for more details, you can consult online.

Hello, thanks for the query. Madam please clarify following things: 1) do you have hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism? 2) are you taking 500 mg or is it 50 mcg of levothyroxine? Because in hyperthyroidism drugs like carbi, azole & methimazole are given. In hypothyroidism levothyroxine is given but dosage is usually < 200 mgc per day. Also please inform your weight, height, extent of daily physical activity or exercise, present dietary pattern, lipid profile and whether you are interested in having a baby (if married). Unless all the details are correctly known there is no way to give any comments or suggestions. Thanks.

Dear lybrate-user let me know your height weight and bp and the results of tsh t3 and t4 before you started on thyronorm. Take an online appointment with the results and we will then decide on the future course of action
