I recently had a medical checkup and found out that I have thyroid issues. What steps should I take now regarding treatment, tests, and lifestyle changes?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
First, find out if its hypothyroidism (low) or hyperthyroidism (high) by checking your TSH, T3, and T4 levels. Most people with thyroid issues need daily thyroid medicine, usually lifelong but safe. Take your medicine on an empty stomach, same time daily. Recheck your thyroid levels every 3 to 6 months or as advised.

Take a Thyroid Profile (T3 T4 TSH) Test Test or Take a THYROID PEROXIDASE ANTIBODIES (ANTI MICROSOMAL ANTIBODIES) Test

My name is Nandini. I have been suffering from thyroid issues for 5 years and am currently taking Thyronorm 125 mcg. Recently, I was diagnosed with PCOS. I am experiencing heavy hair fall and have been trying to conceive for the past 3 years without success. My periods are very irregular, sometimes once every 3 months, with very heavy bleeding, clots, and severe pain lasting almost a month, which only stops when I take Meprate for a month. Please suggest what I should do now, as I want to conceive.
