I have been suffering from thyroid issues for the past 6 months. Recently, I was also diagnosed with PCOD, and I have gained significant weight. I am trying to conceive and would like guidance on how to manage these problems so that I can improve my chances of pregnancy

Thyroid issues and PCOD can affect weight and fertility, but many women conceive with proper care. Keep thyroid levels in the normal range with medication as advised. For PCOD, focus on weight management with a healthy diet and regular exercise. A Thyroid Profile (TSH, T3, T4) and Hormonal Profile (LH, FSH, Prolactin, Insulin) will help your doctor adjust treatment and plan fertility steps. Tracking ovulation and regular follow up with your doctor will support your chances of conceiving naturally.
Dr. Hema Suggests...
Take a Thyroid Profile (T3 T4 TSH) Test Test or Take a FSH,LH & Prolactin, Serum Test

I recently had a full body check up, and some of the results indicate high TSH, high cholesterol, and a few other concerns. I would like to know which specialist I should consult to review my report and provide the best healthcare advice.

Last 3 months back I checked with doctor with thyroid reports. Doctor advised me to take 25 mg for 2 days a week and 50 mg for 5 days. I took for one month and stopped. Then I started taking 25 mg for the past 2 months. I have been taking 25 mg for past 7 to 8 years so I continued the same. Now today my TSH is 5.05 ml. Should I continue 25 mg or 50 mg. Please suggest. I am attaching my report. That time free T3 T4 T5 report I showed to doctor. Now my weight is increasing even on normal diet and I have hair fall and dandruff issues. Please suggest what to do? Remaining all is very good. No health issues and periods are normal.
