PCOD and thyroid imbalance can trigger acne and delay healing, leading to scars. Eating clean, staying hydrated, and using dermatologist recommended creams can help improve your skin. Avoid touching or picking acne. Regular follow ups and hormone testing can help you manage skin and hormonal issues better.

My father is 76 years old and has hypothyroidism. He has been taking Thyronorm 25 mcg daily for more than a year. His recent blood test results are: T3: 90.55 ng/dL (normal range for above 50 yrs: 40 to 181 ng/dL) T4: 4.7 microgram/dL (normal range for above 60 yrs: 5 to 10.7 microgram/dL) TSH: 20.9 microIU/mL (normal range for 55 to 87 yrs: 0.5 to 8.9 microIU/mL) Should his dose be changed or kept the same? If it needs adjustment, what should the new dose be?
