Get a pap smear and endometrial biopsy done to rule out cancer, there is no risk if blood tests are performed prior to both the things so that the counts are checked and risk of spreading carcinoma if any is ruled out, medicines for TSH 9 can be taken ,alternatively diet and physical activity can be modified to bring the TSH down, hope that answers your quer
