I've been dealing with hypothyroidism and since taking my medication, my TSH levels have gone down to 1.66 from 6. I'm on 25 mcg of Thyronorm. Should I continue with the meds or is it okay to stop now?

s long as your TSH is within the normal range (and considering youre feeling well), it is generally safe to continue the medication. Always consult your doctor before making any changes to the dosage or stopping the medication. Your doctor will guide you with the best approach based on your individual health needs.

I'm on day 4 of my cycle and my doctor started me on Siphene 50mg because I had irregular egg sizes last month. Ive been taking it since day 2, but I noticed my period unexpectedly stopped around 3.5 days. Usually, it lasts at least 5 days. Could Siphene be the reason my bleeding stopped earlier this time? Id really like to understand what's going on.
