I am a thyroid patient and also have PCOD, which causes irregular periods. My recent sonogram shows an endometrial thickness of 7.1 mm. I have gained weight in the last 2 months and often feel dull and drowsy. Additionally, my TB test is positive, but my doctor advised not to take TB medication. What should I do now?

TB positive test must be discussed with a specialist, even if no symptoms. PCOD and thyroid together can cause weight gain and fatigue.

I am 32 and got my thyroid test report which comes out as Free T4 1.28 and Thyroid Stimulating Hormone ultrasensitive 1.136. Are my thyroid levels normal?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I have attached my recent thyroid blood test report. I am currently taking Thyronorm 100 mcg daily. Based on my report, could you please advise if my dosage should be adjusted?

My mother is 60 years old and has been taking Eltroxin 75 mcg for the past two months, as her TSH was 5.00 at that time. Prior to that, she had been taking Eltroxin 50 mcg for the last ten years. She recently had a thyroid test and the results are: T3: 0.90 ng/mL T4: 9.30 microgram/dL TSH: 16.23 mIU/L I do not understand why her TSH has increased so significantly despite taking her medication regularly. Please advise what steps we should take now.
