I am 32 years old, married, and have hypothyroidism. I take 50 mcg of medication every day. Over the last few months, I have noticed that my periods end on the second day, with no flow on the third day and only light spotting on the fourth day. The flow is very light, I could manage with one pad for the whole day, though I usually do not. My periods are regular and always on time. My recent thyroid test results are: TSH: 5.55 T3: 1.06 T4: 6.30 Is this normal?

TSH is slightly raised indicating subclinical hypothyroidism. Period pattern may relate. Please take AntiTPO Antibody test to check autoimmune thyroid. Take the test to confirm thyroid autoimmunity.

I recently had my anti TPO thyroid test done, and the levels are significantly higher than the normal range. I have been taking 50 mcg Thyronorm for my TSH levels for the past 2 years. Additionally, I developed urticaria (skin reaction) 5 months ago, which is still ongoing.

I am suffering from alopecia areata with hair loss from the scalp, stomach, chest, legs, pubic region, and beard. My doctor prescribed Minoxidil 10 percent and told me this is due to stress. Now I am also seeing hair loss from the crown portion of the head. The doctor told me it is male pattern baldness. I do not understand what I should do as hair fall is increasing day by day. Is this incurable? This situation is making me more stressed. My blood test report is fine except TSH, which is 0.34. Should I try natural remedies like onion juice and others?
