Hello Doctor, I am 30 years old and recently had thyroid tests done, which showed TT3: 114, TT4: 9, and TSH: 33. I have not had my periods yet, my last period was in July, and a urine pregnancy test in August was negative. What should I do next?

Your TSH level of 33 is very high, indicating severe hypothyroidism, which can cause delayed or absent periods. Your TT3 and TT4 are in the lower range, supporting this. It is important to consult your doctor to start thyroid medication (thyroxine) as soon as possible to help regulate your thyroid levels and menstrual cycle. You do not need to repeat a pregnancy test unless there is a new exposure risk. Repeat your thyroid profile after 6 to 8 weeks once on treatment to monitor improvement.

View allI have booked an appointment on Saturday. I have TSH of 12 and T3 and T4 are normal but my report is two months old. Should I get my thyroid levels checked before consulting the doctor?

My aunt is 43 years old and has been diagnosed with a thyroid nodule. Is surgery the only way to treat it? I was considering consulting a homeopath, can homeopathy help cure the nodule without surgery? Are there any naturopathy treatments or home remedies that can help remove it?

I was diagnosed with thyroid issues during pregnancy. I delivered in March, and one month later, my TSH was 6.32. My doctor advised me to continue Thyronorm for the next 3 months. Two days ago, I rechecked my thyroid, and my TSH has doubled. I am concerned about whether this will affect my baby, as I am breastfeeding. I have read that thyroid levels can affect a baby IQ, is this true?
