Recently, I had a thyroid test. My T3 and T4 values are low, but TSH is normal. My hemoglobin is 10.5. I do not feel weakness or fatigue, but I am worried if this could be a serious problem, as I read it might indicate anemia. Also, for the past 2 months I have noticed pigmentation changes on my facial skin. Please advise.

Low T3/T4 with normal TSH may indicate central hypothyroidism. Hb 10.5 suggests mild anemia. Pigmentation can result from nutritional deficiencies. Please follow up with an endocrinologist.

Today I have done my TSH test and my report is TSH 3rd generation 1.33. So please tell me can I continue the medicine or not? Earlier I was taking 100 mg. So please suggest what I should do? Thank you in advance.

My hypothyroidism has been detected since last 6 years and I have been taking 75 mcg fixed dose of Thyronorm tablet with regular blood tests and check ups. Thankfully I have been able to maintain my TSH level in normal range for many years. But yesterday I got my report and my TSH level is 6.26 uIU per ml. I have been taking regular medicines. Is there anything to worry? What can I do to prevent TSH from increasing?

I took my last medication on 3rd July. After 11 days, my period has not started. I checked with a pregnancy test twice, and both were negative. What should I do next, and how many more days should I wait?
