Hello, thanks for the query.
I have seen the question. Madam let clarify for hypothyroidism (if well confirmed with high tsh) only medication is to take adequate dosage of levothyroxine. There is no medicine in any other alternative branch or therapy. This is because hypothyroidism occurs due to insufficient or some times nill production (synthesis) of thyroxine (t4) by our thyroid gland. Only remedy is to supplement the required quantity by taking the synthetic hormone. I hope you have unde...more

Hello, thanks for the query.
Madam, I have seen the details mentioned. Tsh 5.9 mu/l means your hypothyroidism is not in control. Ideally tsh should be around 3 to 4 mu/l and t3 as well as t4 should be in the normal range (there is no mention of t3 & t4 levels). Please remember you can not or should not stop taking levothyroxine, that will make the condition still bad. If you have any doubts please do come back. Thanks.

Hello, thanks for the query.
I have seen the details mentioned. From the given information I am unable to understand what is the current situation. Because only the dosage of tablet (thyronorm 50) is mentioned. Nothing about patient's t3, t4 & tsh levels as well as weight, height or any other details like her age is mentioned.
Hypothyroidism if not properly controlled does cause difficulty in getting pregnant. Tsh needs to be maintained <2.5mu/l for getting pregnant. Plus hypothyroidism ...more

Hello, thanks for the query.
Madam, I have seen the details mentioned. Your tsh is with in the specified range, which means the current dosage is adequate & needs to be continued. Secondly please remember while going for testing thyroid profile, the dose of the tablets should be taken as one does every day. However, missing on that (test day) hardly changes the result. But always remember not to drop the dosing. If you have any questions please do come back. Thanks.

Hello, thanks for the query.
I have seen the details mentioned. As you have stated, if hypothyroidism is well controlled, the person has absolutely normal life. There are hardly any issues. However, if you are having "mood swings" even when thyroid hormone levels are normal (no levels are mentioned, so difficult to comment), then one has to look for are there any other causes. The information given is very nonspecific, that is there is no way to know whether the person is a male or female, w...more
