Hello, thanks for the query.
I have seen the details mentioned. As I understand you have hypothyroidism since 10 years and you are on 125 mcg. However, there is no mention of current t3, t4 & tsh levels. Because if hypothyroidism is under good control then all the symptoms related to that condition are in control. So if you are getting back ache and pain in legs, then there is a need to look at those values. If hypothyroidism is well controlled then one has to investigate and find out the re...more

Hello, thanks for the query.
Madam, in women following menopause because of lack of estrogens there is an increase in the bone loss. This leads to osteopenia and later osteoporosis. Therefore treatment for preventing the bone loss is to give estrogens or a combination of estrogen & progestin plus calcium and vitamin d3. The drug prescribed to you also is supposed to help reduce the bone loss. There are some side effects, but if you can tolerate the same then please go ahead. Thanks.

Hello thanks for the query.
From the details given it is clear that your tgl and vldl both are high. But lipids are quite fine. Usually now a days unless tgl go very high fibrates are hardly used. Since you have been prescribed the same along with rosuvastatin, please continue the same for a few months and check lipids after 6 months or so. You have only mentioned the tsh level, there is no info on t3 & t4. Thanks.

thanks for the query.
Hypothyroidism is a hormone (thyroxine) deficiency disorder, where person's thyroid gland is unable to produce adequate amounts of thyroxine (t4) and triiodothyronine (t3). Both these hormones are required for most of the metabolic functions in the body and also for normal functioning of brain. Therefore, that hormone needs to be supplemented from outside and that too for lifetime. There is no cure. However, if adequate dosage of thyroxine is taken the person remains ab...more

Thyrox 3x and 6x both are effective in homeopathy. However a homeopathy physician can help to give you constitution medicine which will be more effective and can treat long term and help effectively.
Thyroid inum 200 also helps.
