Question 1

This is regarding the health of my friend, whose blood report indicates hyperthyroidism. I would like to know whether this is a serious condition or a common disorder that can be treated easily, and if it could potentially cause major health problems in the future. He is 31 years old, and his test results show Microsomal TPO is 242.15, Thyroglobulin ATG is 848.47, HbA1C is 5.2, and glucose is 102.54.

Question 2

During pregnancy, thyroid was detected. I was taking 25 mg tablets as prescribed by my gynecologist during pregnancy. Now my son is 2 years old, and a blood test was done 3 days ago. The test was Free TSH, Free T3, and Free T4. T3 and T4 are within range, but TSH is raised to 7.25. What should I do? The blood report is attached here. Please guide.

Question 3

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?

I recently received my blood test results, and my TSH was 6.2. What does this indicate?

This indicates subclinical hypothyroidism. If symptoms like fatigue, weight gain, or hair fall exist, treatment may be started. Please do AntiTPO antibodies test to assess for autoimmune thyroiditis. Take this test to confirm if thyroid disease is autoimmune.
