I am a 29 year old female, married for five years. I have had an MTP and two abortions. My TSH was normal until now, but my latest blood report shows an increased TSH of 7.83. I recently lost 22 kg through a healthy diet and exercises under the guidance of a dietician.

A TSH of 7.83 indicates hypothyroidism. Weight loss and hormonal changes may trigger thyroid shifts. Since you have a reproductive history and are planning pregnancy, it is important to bring TSH to less than 2.5. Please consult your doctor to start or adjust thyroxine dose.

Dr. Hema Suggests...

Take a TSH Test (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone) Test or Take a THYROID PEROXIDASE ANTIBODIES (ANTI MICROSOMAL ANTIBODIES) Test

Hi doctor, I have been diagnosed with a thyroid problem for the past two years. At present, I am taking 100 mg Thyronorm. Recently my blood report shows TSH 0.32, T3 0.92, and T4 11.50. What does this mean?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I got my report today. It says LH level 13.36, Prolactin 28.45 and TSH 5.970. What does it mean? Do I have infertility?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

Today I have done my TSH test and my report is TSH 3rd generation 1.33. So please tell me can I continue the medicine or not? Earlier I was taking 100 mg. So please suggest what I should do? Thank you in advance.
