Madhurikaji, Thanks for the query. TSH value 14.5 mU/L shows that there is uncontrolled hypothyroidism, which needs to be treated. Untreated it can cause multiple problems like swelling of face, lower limbs, weight gain, slow heart rate, tiredness, early fatigue, irregular menstruation, muscle and joint pains, intolerance to cold, dry skin and hair, hair loss and anxiety and depression. Therefore, start early treatment. Thanks.
