Question 1

Hello, I have been taking Methimez 10 mg twice a day for hyperthyroidism for the past 5 months. I also have a thyroid nodule. Last week, my blood report showed a high increase in TSH level. What is the solution to bring my TSH back to normal?

Question 2

I took medicine a few minutes after intercourse, and then my first period started, but it lasted only 1.5 days. After that, I started having daily stomach pain, so I consulted a gynecologist, who advised an ultrasound. The report impression was excess bowel gas. Later, my second period started but was not clear. Today, I feel like my menses should come, but it has not. My gynecologist advised me to take Amycordial syrup and a TSH test. I had also done a pregnancy test before my first period, which was negative. Could you please advise what is happening? Is it possible that I am pregnant?

Question 3

I am 23 years old and suffering from hypothyroidism. I often feel cold at normal temperatures, feel lazy, have thinning hair, and tend to forget things. I understand these are symptoms caused by low thyroid hormone production. My report shows a TSH of 456, whereas the normal range should be around 3 to 6. I have consulted a doctor and am taking prescribed medication.
My concerns are:
Can hypothyroidism be completely cured?
Will my hair and cognitive function (thinking/memory) return to normal once it is treated?

I am under medication with 150 mg thyroxine for the past 8 months. Recently I took a blood report 15 days back which shows TSH 0.41, T3 3.9, and T4 1.05. Can you please tell me if these values are normal or not?

Your thyroid levels are within the expected range for someone on thyroxine. TSH slightly on the lower end, continue same dose unless advised otherwise by your doctor. Regular monitoring is advised.
