I have extremely low TSH hormone. Does it mean that I have a thyroid disease? I have heard that it is not treatable and causes a lot of weight gain. Is it true in my case? For reference, I am attaching relevant details from my report. Thyroid profile: T3 125, T4 8.4, TSH 0.08.

Low TSH may indicate early hyperthyroidism. It does not cause weight gain. It is manageable with proper care. Do the required thyroid antibody and repeat function tests.

Take a Thyroid - Free FT3, FT4 & TSH Test Test or Take a THYROID PEROXIDASE ANTIBODIES (ANTI MICROSOMAL ANTIBODIES) Test

Hi doctor, my mother was previously diagnosed with hyperthyroidism. Recently, we received her blood reports. Kindly review them and suggest further diagnosis and appropriate medications to take.

I am a thyroid patient and also have PCOD, which causes irregular periods. My recent sonogram shows an endometrial thickness of 7.1 mm. I have gained weight in the last 2 months and often feel dull and drowsy. Additionally, my TB test is positive, but my doctor advised not to take TB medication. What should I do now?
