Does only Graves disease cause heterogeneous echotexture in thyroid lobes? Both my thyroid lobes are showing heterogeneous echotexture with a cyst in the right lobe of the thyroid.

Heterogeneous thyroid does not mean only Graves disease. It can happen in other common thyroid problems, too, like mild swelling, small nodules, or hormone issues. A small cyst in the thyroid is also quite common and usually not serious. Some simple blood tests can help you understand if your thyroid is working fine.

Greetings Sir/Madam, My T3 and T4 levels appear to be normal, but my TSH level is high. What could this indicate? I have attached my thyroid test report.

Answered by Apollo Doctors

Hi, recently I got my thyroid test done and found that my TSH is 6.031, T4 is 1.16, and Anti TPO is 81.60. I feel tired and sleepy all day long and am not able to concentrate because of this. I am also finding a lot of difficulty in losing weight, even after dieting and working out in the gym for long hours. I have been taking 50 mg tablet of Thyronorm daily. Kindly advise what I should do. Is my report okay or is there something wrong? What should I do to feel energetic again?

I am 37 years old, and my period suddenly stopped this month. I checked a pregnancy test, and it is negative. Is this serious?
